Craftsman 1/2" Air Impact Wrench - $19.99

[Apoc]

I know a lot of people here read/feed Slickdeals but thought someone might benefit. I don't own this brand but the reviews seem reasonable. Even if you keep it as a backup and it works for a year, it's hard to beat the price.

Sears has the Craftsman 1/2" Air Impact Wrench for $19.99 (see lower price when you add to your cart [and then view cart]). Choose in-store pick-up to save on shipping, otherwise it's $7.50.

That is the same impact that comes with the compressor packages, don't waste your money. I routinely had to lower the car back to the ground to break the lugs, then raise it back up and use the impact to spin them off. It was a real PITA. It wore out quickly too.

Then Alison bought me an IR Thundergun. That thing rocks.

Ingersoll is the way to go, I have an Ingersoll 2135 that I've had for 2 years (though the trigger did break after busting off a few tens of thousands of lug nuts, but I fixed it) and I also have a Matco 1769Q which is the same gun, only a little quieter and a hundred dollars more.

A good choice though, for most DIYers, is an Ingersoll 231C, they usually run about $100-130, but they are well worth the money.
