Snap-On has a new cordless impact that has some ummph but you will pay for
it..

What are you going to use it for?

Thanks for the two replies so far.
The problem is, that I just got out of the military after being in for
nine years, and serverly injured my back during my second stint in Iraq, a
week before I was due to rotate back to the states.
Basically, I am just looking for something to make it easier for me
in case I need to change a flat tire on my vehicles, and to use for when I
want to rotate tires on my vehicles, as well as for some household use, or
occassionally if I need it to work on a motor. (Light stuff only).
I have to adapt to my present capabilities and need to prepare for
how to best handle a situation.
I will only use the wrench to take off the lugs, and use a manual
torque wrench to properly put on the lugz.

Much regards



Well, being in a similar situation as you I perhaps shouldn't make this
discourse public but too late now... I will be blunt and it's not a
reflection upon you so please take it that way.

You WILL have to get used to not being able to do MANY things that you
did before. I didn't and only hurt myself more! Don't do it to
yourself. It's a sad day when it hits you but you must move forward.

My solution to your problem: AAA and cell phone. Changing tires is a
past activity. Have your tires rotated at inspection time or just go to
a tire dealer that does it cheap. Say $10 -$20 a year is cheaper than an
impact wrench that you KNOW in your heart will NOT be charged when you
need it.

Thank you for your service to our country, there is NO way I could
express my gratitude. Please take advantage of any and all help
available to you.

Take care
