Power Tools

 
 
The 1/4 drivers arent bad but they are only ~150or so ft pounds. I'd expect them to struggle with larger fasteners Plus over time they will bend or shatter the 1/4 bits.
 
I have that same driver and use the shit out of it as a screw installer. I'm siding my garage & shed next week and plan on using it to screw the siding down. These things can take a beating. I used it a few years back to install all the wire holders for our electric fence and it did it on one charge. I always find a use for this thing

Having said that, these will work fine on small nuts & bolts but really you need a 1/2" impact for working on the Jeep.

This ^^ I’ve used it almost exclusively to build my house. Only thing I’ve used a drill for is my hole saws. I had the older model that I replaced with this one about three months into building because it was dying but it was old.

The M18 brushless fuel drill/impact driver is also very nice. More bulky but lots of torque settings to avoid overdriving fasteners. I use both tools, but for somewhat different purposes. I have not used either on the Jeep yet.

I am impressed that the 1/4" impact is able to drive screws into aluminum gutter without causing any harm.

Good, glad to hear. Was eagerly awaiting your response.
 
Yeah, this was to replace my 1/4 that broke. Used the crap my old one around the house and little jeep stuff. This was to replace my old one and get my foot in the door. Figured it was a pretty good deal with how inch the batteries are.
 
Totally forgot to post this pic when this convo was more active. This is my allotment of power tools I use at work. The m12 1/2 and 3/8” impact guns are super strong for there size, especially with the 5.0 battery. The m18 1/2” 2767 is super powerful for everything but heavy and big for tight spaces.

Since I can tell you USE your tools, are the SnapOn and MAC really worth it compared to the Milwaukee?
