If the CP doesn't budge on that gun, you might end up flipping the TL trying..

Decent price too.. I wouldn't buy it unless you plan on making it a service.

Suddenly I have an urge to get the most powerful impact gun I can find. Guys and guns lol...

For that price point compared to equally powerful guns from Ingersol Rand, SnapOn, MAC and others it seems like a great deal. I really need to invest in a better and more ergonomic torque wrench before getting these powered by Hulk impact guns.

I'd really like to see a bolt that some of these 1000+ ft.-lbs. torque impact guns couldn't get off.

The one I have now is just a 110. I used to have a huge ass 220 7hp 60 gallon tank.

It does what I need it to do and it was given to me.

@ JJH take it to a truck/tire shop and have them break it loose. Tighten to where you can drove home and then knock out the job. I've done it twice on the TL
