Who needs battery cordless tools?

Old school Roadside Assistance.Not a battery tool in sight

That would work for one lug nut.

That would work for one lug nut.

Depends on how rusty it is. Might not even get one.

 

[ecotec]

That is one of those “good ideas” that just plain shits the bed.

Absolutely hilarious and positively true!!

No it wouldn't.....the gauge shows that tank is empty!

Must have already taken the one lug nut off.lol

He’s waiting to the second service truck for the service truck.

Essentially anyone who thinks this guy might help them...

 

[Bockscar]

The gauge is sideways....so I don't think is empty but definitely not enough air to get a lug off

That pic is just for Instagram posers..... "doing work!".

 

[sweet victory]

What you need to do is recirculate the impact gun exhaust back into the tank with a check valve. Now you have infinite battery life!

 

[ike]

old school for sure. bulky, inefficient, and replaced with better technology.

I think this might be a trailer park boys full service station

No one needs them. They are a recent invention. They do make things much easier and usually faster.

Looks way more convenient than a battery operated impact that fits in one hand and can go on a couple dozen calls before it needs to be charged. Maybe they carry a battery operated compressor to fill up the tank to take the next lug off?

 

[Stedlin]

That would work just fine if it was pressurized to a few thousand PSI.

Especially because you can get 110 in the cab and keep a spare or two on charge all the time

This!!!

 

[dchawk81]

Why have an impact wrench and air tank? A 4 way is all you really need.

 

[ecotec]

This!!!

I am starting to think Darkzero is the most right of anyone in the thread. That it was just staged for a photo.

 

[scooby074]

That would work for one lug nut.

Except it did 10 with air to spare. 5 off, 5 on. That was the after photo. Gauge reads about 25 psi low.

Wow! My impact isn’t nearly as efficient.

 

[ecotec]

Wow! My impact isn’t nearly as efficient.

Mine either. I would need a much bigger compressor.

 

[Zewnten]

Of course. I even slashed the tire in the bed for extra Instagram cred. *****.

Did you expect everyone to congratulate you? On a tool collecting forum?

 

[scooby074]

Wow! My impact isn’t nearly as efficient.

The astro compact is surprisingly efficient. You can definitely get a half a dozen hits per lug on a 5 lugger and still have enough air left to tighten.

Back in the day when I actually did this for a living, before cordless existed, I had 2 air pigs and a IR gun. Do as much as possible with the gun before switching to the 4 way or breaker bar.

I swear guys on here can't find their nuts without a Milwaukee m18 Fuel Dickdetector 2234-22 when they wake up in the morning.

That would be handy when it’s cold out lol

2234 sounds small.
