Re: Opinions on a harbour freight impact wrench
 

I'm rocking a Stanley made impact wrench that I bought at Walmart for about $80.00. It's 450 Ft/Lbs. It did the same for me as the TI did for turbohf.

I have this same gun at my shop and a really nice Ingersol Rand Compressor....for the most part it works really well, although I have had a few things that it could not remove..a honda crank pulley being one of them. I also have a Craftsman gun....it sucks ass, don't waste your money on cheap impact guns, they are just of no use when it comes time to get down to serious business.

anytime you buy cheap stuff just remember your getting what you pay for.

hmm I guess I'll invest in something good, HR wants 75 bucks for shipping anyways. another one of those times where it sucks to live in Canada. :-\

I have a electric impact that I use when it's convient.They work well for suspension etc and are quite handy for almost anything on your Honda except the crank pulley where they dont have enough torque.For how cheap they are I would def recommend one for home use.

Re: Opinions on a harbour freight impact wrench
 

That gun is based off IR's "ThunderGun" that was designed a few years ago, its very very loud. CP makes some semi-decent ----, but as far as a overall quality its not the greatest. A few guys in our shop have IR titanium gun, but I've been rocking one of the earlier IR Composite guns for awhile now, and havent found anything that it couldnt take off before it breaks it.

As far as the craftsmen guns, uhm, I'd definatly stay away from them.

I think my gun is a 2100 just like the one you bought, except mine is older.. Your definatly gonna love it. Just make sure you have a big air compressor, a big line so it will actually perform good.

+1 - we use the earthquake and it does crank bolts no problem. :P
