Impact Wrench Help

Hello Everyone,

I just purchased a Craftsman Pro 27g Vertical compressor (SCFM @40 psi - 7.2, SCFM @90 - 5.8/ MC 150psi).

I am fairly confident this is a perfect fit air compressor for me because after shopping for a 1/2' impact wrench I have found unlimited possibilities. On paper, all of the 1/2' wrenches I have found should be optimized with this compressor.

I actually expected there to be limitations from the compressor so now I am stuck with just finding the gun that provides what I need without being overly priced or heavy duty.

Any suggestions? Budget isn't exactly an issue but I would like to have a solid wrench that doesn't require much maintenance. I will be using it mostly for wheel/tire rotations, suspension removal/installation, perhaps engine/tranny work in the future.

Has anyone ever heard of Cleco? My friend says this company sets the standards for pneumatics. I like SnapOn but could really do without their outrageous new tool pricing and I am to impatient to wait for ePlay. Craftsman Pro tools seem sturdy but just randomly have a "cheap" feel about them.

Thanks in advance,
CCorbin
