The suspension job I mentioned on my Mini above was not only the literally-entire suspension (including lower control arms), but it also starts with putting the car in the has-to-be-a-euphemism "service position" that involves taking off the front facia of the car, removing the two crash bars, removing the exhaust and dropping the damn subframe (all just to get to the starting point. Otherwise, they’re all quality tools.Ĭlick to expand.Most? I don't agree with that. I’m not knocking the Milwaukees, although I was disappointed by the high speed ratchet performance. Mine is a 1/2’ drive, but I think I will pick up a 3/8” companion. Of the five tools, the Dewalt Atomic 20v was my favorite. Score 5/10, mostly downgraded because its size limits it’s usefulness, and induces fatigue because of its weight. If you can only buy one impact, it probably shouldn’t be this. It’s more something that you might need than something you reach for at the start of the project. It did everything I asked, but probably wasn’t required, and the overall size made some tasks difficult.

I used it on some of the lug nuts and to free the stuck caliper anchor bolts. Not a lot more power, if any, than the Dewalt, and a little larger, but I liked it. Did everything I asked except seized anchor bolts. Not enough torque to remove caliper bolts, but quite useful.
Overall score for the times I used it was 4/10. Head was too big to access some bolts that hold the roof to the tractor, but maybe a wobble extension would have resolved that. Worked ok on the reinstall portion, but not enough torque to remove the fuel rail hold down. Milwaukee M12 Fuel High speed ratchet was pretty useless working on the fuel rail of the truck. I deliberately tried to use all five tools on the same projects, just for kicks. Used them on some brake and fuel system work on a rusty F250 last week and to repair what ended up being some mouse induced damage on my compact tractor. I bought four impacts over the past year. I'm ruling out the 2855, as it only has 250 ft/lbs nut-busting torque. Unless I am going to be frustrated that I can't get it into necessary spaces, and will wish I had gotten something smaller like the 2962-20 Mid-Torque.
I am already invested in Milwaukee batteries, and the 2767 has the most torque in their line-up. I'll be touching every nut and bolt on this car. I will only be using it occasionally, so I'm not really worried about the weight. It's main purpose will be busting rusted nuts off an old car I'm restoring.
I am considering purchasing it, as I've been on the lookout for a 1/2 Milwaukee cordless friction ring, and see it's on sale at Home Depot for $299. Has anyone that owns a Milwaukee 2767-20 High Torque Impact Wrench and works on cars run into clearance issues? Meaning it's too large to fit where you need to use it?
