Lug nut torque

[Dan Darst]

Regarding the impact wrench.

Ingersoll Rand 2135Ti
half inch drive
625 foot pounds of torque clock wise
1000 foot pounds counter clock wise
weighs about 3.95 pounds (the socket weighs as much as the wrench)
7 vane titanium motor
10,000 rpm free speed
I have removed all wheels from a car without the air compressor cycling
has four torque settings, I skip the torque wrench procedure
less than 250 dollars, no brainer.
removed all nuts from my bus that were put on with my brothers one inch
drive, D handled, IR behemoth.
