Impact wrench

posted by  someone claiming to be JohnB on  Tue Jan 23 04:50 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I use an IR 1/2" drive impact wrench set to the lightest setting...I 'calibrated' it to the lugnuts on the wheel and it gets about 30-40 ft-lbs. Just don't let it hammer for a half an hour on the bolt!

It's easy to attach or remove the cam gear with the impact wrench just using your bare (ok, I wear a vinyl or mechanic's glove) hands.

I still use the balancer hold tool to do the bottom.
