Default Hey Gunner

all I can say is

SUPER SIZE ME BABY!!!!

Those are monsters... I can even imagine the noise they make when running.
The biggest engine I've seen is a 16 cyl CAT, with Quad turbo chargers....
these appear to make that engine look like a toy...

I know that you like to brag once in a while.

Would you say that I overpaid by getting a 2 1/2 sized Ingersoll Rand
impact wrench for $49?

(2 1/2 is the hammer size, it means that the square hole in the impact
socket would need to be 2.5 by 2.5 inch. Kind of big)
You suck!!!


Now what are you going to do with it? Turn it into a lamp?

Unless you own a BIG Sullaire compressor......?

Gunner, pondering what it would do to you if the bolt didnt break
immediately........


My plan is to take it apart, clean up, maybe do a rebuild and sell. The
biggest nut I have in the house is 3". Not big enough for this one.


Look in the mirror for a loose nut...:-)

I know a guy who works on HUGE by LARGE steam engines who would look at a
3" nut and say "How Quaint"

Take a look at his web site. Maybe Rick could find a use for that little
impact wrench.
