Re: impact driver

It is frozen from the manufacturer, they torque them on the assembly line so that the first time you want to unscrew them it is really tough. I was starting to round the bolt off, before I decided to quite before I made the job a much bigger deal. It sure seems like I am going to need a lot of muscle from the driver, because even with my breaker bar I couldn't get it off, but that's because I don't have much room for leverage. Since the area is cramped I would prefer electric, but otherwise it would be a no brainer to go with the cordless.
I guess I could get the cordless and see if it fits and try it. If it doesn't work I can then look at the electrics.
