Hi Steve

no connection with product or its promotion

I have had one for about a year - used it infrequently - with a 1/2" to 3/4" adapter - removes and replaces wheel nuts on my isuzu 4wd truck without the usual backbreaking effort.

Gets my recommendation from experience

Hope this helps

Great bit of kit, had mine about 2 years no problems in removing wheel nuts.
I also used it to remove other nuts around the vehicle and if you're not careful it will snap them off, it has that much torque.

cheers

Got one. Love it.

DON'T use it to tighten wheel nuts!!! Should ALWAYS do that by hand.

Thanks for that tip.

I just bought one the other day and was going to do some testing this weekend.

Your welcome. I use mine to just spin the nuts on till they just bite and then tighten by hand.

I have two, one in each car, I have used it a couple of times and found it very good. The small red light is actually useful in the dark and I reckon even the bride can use this. Was thinking that I'll have to invest in their jack as well - saw them advertised the other day. Seem to work on the same principle but not sure it is high enough for the Nisan.

Kind regards

Beatit,i would tend to not bother with jack (elec) as it only just lifts the one wheel on the x90. Tried it under the back wheel of the f truck & the top part that sits under the axle bent inwards.:o)))

Add my endorsement to this product.

Ever tried getting the diff nut undone to replace the seal?

This baby just laughed at it, and I was overjoyed as well. :)

As mentioned, don't do up your wheel nuts with it. The little "clack" it emits when hammering is totally deceptive, as is the lack of any feedback to your hands.

Brilliant!

+1.

Using a cheater bar on a diff is awkward to say the least.

Ive had one for 18 months and I love it. Saves lots of effort.

Gets used once every few months I suppose.

One other comment.....

The supplied sockets are rubbish. Have so far destroyed 2 of them. Replace them with some quality impact sockets and you'll be fine.

Had one for about 3 years and use it all the time with 5 vehicles and 5 trailers, but you will need to replace socket with good quality one,
Use mine to tighten wheel nuts too, but double check them when done.
