I dont tighten lugs that hard but its still one of the biggest dread inducing thoughts if i gotta pull a wheel.Amen on tugging cords.
I have a 20 V Dewalt 3/8 impact wrench with two batteries it works great. 90% of the problem with getting lugged nuts off is tightening them too hard when you put them on.
Having said that, I have picked up some great tools for little money when they were transitioning everything to batteries. I have a Weedwhacker that I swear, will take down a 4 inch oak tree, electric chainsaw, a long electric chainsaw, etc etc.
The Weedwhacker was $179 marked down to $29.
IMHO, especially if it’s for something you don’t use every day, it’s the way to go!
The ones on my B2 were super tight. Which is why i bought the gun. I was grunting like a sumbitch with a 4 way...so i went and got a 1/2 ratchet with my big 5 ft pipe. I then proceeded to grenade the ratchet.
So i said f it lol.
Next im gonna get a set of torque sticks
