Re: Right tool for the job

Years ago I was trying to get the seat belts out of a truck and couldn't get them loose. I had this tool (impact wrench?) that you whacked with a hammer and it was supposed to free stuff like that up. No go. So I went out and bought an impact driver. Perfect tool for the job, but I never had a use for it again. Fast forward to me purchasing my K20 last winter from Livrat. The first upgrade I wanted to do was mag wheels. Finally got everything rounded up and went to install them. OMG, it was taking forever just for one wheel, the freaking lugnuts were super hard to get off with my faithful star wrench. A light bulb went off in my pea brain, I have an impact wrench and a set of impact sockets. Made for an easy peasy job.
