Best 1/2" inpact gun - battery or Air for tire lugs

[GaryBro]

I have a Dewalt 20V torque gun and it easily takes off my 140 lb ft lug nuts. I put them back on with the gun but do not let it go the full torque. I use a manual torque wrench to do the final tightness.

I just ran across this deal - what do folks think

Do a search with the Milwaukee model # I.E. 2767 is the tool's #. This kit is 2767-22. It looks like they are charging you $50 for the boot.

Not sure I am following you. The 2767-22 that is part of this comes with the tool - TWO batterys and the case/charger - normally $449. They supposedly throw the boot in free.

The 2767-21 come with one battery is 349, so there is a difference. I did fond a 2767-22 on ebay for $399 but it does not have the boot and could be used.

Did you find the 2767-22 (two battery with case/charger) cheaper somewhere?
Thanks

I did see it it without a boot for less yesterday, I can't find it now. Sometimes it pays to be patient and periodically check.

Was searching through numerous threads, but the information I need is brand and model impact guns folks are using. Common element is 1/2" and proper impact sockets. What I am not seeing is torque needed (size of unit) I have a 2.5 gallon air tank at 145psi available if that makes an air unit possible, but I also have 18V Mikita batterys and charger available too.

Any information would be great.

I use a ratchet set at the tore required. Just an easy and safer way. So it takes a couple few minutes. Just call me old fashion!

1/2” Milwaukee here too. Always on the back floorboard. Perfect for truck and 5th.

If you already have Makita 18v batteries, go with Makita. I got a Makita XWT14Z 18V LXT last year and it works great on lug nuts. Small and plenty of power. I also carry deep impact sockets that fit my lugs (both truck and trailer), a 100 ft.lb. torque stick, a 150 ft.lb. manual torque wrench and a Makita 18v tire inflator. The chargers are cheap so I carry one in the truck and one in the fifth wheel.

Another vote for Milwaukee 1/2 inch. Light and powerful. I sold my air tool.

Last summer I blew a trailer tire and a truck tire within 2 weeks of each other!

My Milwaukee 1/2 Christmas present was more than enough! Battery still showed full after each task.

I use a dewalt 20v impact wrench. I have 4 spare batteries and 2 sets of sockets saw & metric. Av charger and dc chargers. I also have air compressor but have yet to ever use it except pumping up tires
