So this morning I decide it was time to put the new brake rotors/hubs on my F150. The $94 3/8 drive 20 volt craftsman battery took off everything without a hitch. It get better. On this truck the brake rotors and hubs are all in one unit. Anyway I used my 1/2 drive 24 inch breaker bar without success. So after removing the 21mm lug not socket I tried using the 1/2 impact on the axle nut that is 36mm. The battery was fully charged. Anyway the nut started to loosen, then stopped. I pulled the trigger and it moved again. To cut through the lard and get to the ham, the 1/2 drive 20 volt Craftsman managed to complete the assignment and removed both axle nuts. For the price these cordless tools they have earned there keep. Ken

Some breaker bars cost more than the cordless tools, too! Crazy to think about.
