Right tool for the job

If working on this truck has taught me anything, it's that having the right tool for the job can be invaluable. Tonight it was my impact wrench and a breaker bar. I picked up my impact wrench a while back and have used it a couple of times. Mostly it just saved me the trouble of wrenching on a somewhat tight bolt. Tonight however was different. I was pulling my track bar off and the bolts were a bit rusted. That impact took care of one bolt, and got the other started. Had to finish with the breaker bar. I probably could have done it with the breaker bar alone, but I sure was glad to have the impact. As I tear into the truck more I am certain it will come in handy again.

I am sure everyone has had a moment like this. When was the last time you were glad you had the right tool for the job?
