Electric impact guns, do they work good on rusty bolts?
On a truck that is 18 years old I'm removing bolts to install a body lift kit. Will an electric impact gun do the job? Or are they crap?

Re: Electric impact guns, do they work good on rusty bolts?
i have a dewalt electric impact that i used for tightening down foundation bolts on houses and there hasnt been anything it hasnt been able to unwrench(it'd twists your wrists if you werent careful). It was fairly pricey tho.

I agree I used to work for a company that rebuilt screens in mines, and we used a Dewalt Electric Impact when there was no air available, it worked great.

sears has a de walt one that is around 250lbs for like 175 bucks. and no they aren't crap at all. they tend not to be as powerful as pnuematic but they are pefect when you can't get air to your work site.
