How high can you set the torque? I assume 150lbs isn’t an issue?

Ok car guys, I got an impact driver for Christmas. I've never had one. This is seriously a must-have for car guys.

Ragnar Danneskjold $4,000,000. Never forget.

Oh wow. I guess it goes up to 1850lbs, lol

That's in-lbs. You had the ft-lbs about right.

Ah, ok. Cause my wheels are 150lb ft. I think 135-165 is acceptable.

That's in-lbs. So, 154 ft-lbs. If you are consistently going that high, I'd get an impact wrench, not driver.

Not until you go to take them off again.

I just use my torque wrench for everything and it takes too long.

These cordless impact drivers are a gamechanger if you work on cars. So much

My skid plates take FOREVER to take off for oil changes, so I'm especially looking forward to using this next time.

It would have been super helpful for my jacking rails that I added.

Sounds like it really had an impact

The matching 20V drill is also very nice. Having LED lights on your drill is

Yup. I already had a Makita drill, otherwise I'd buy the set. Sucks having 2 battery platforms.
