We did our (almost) 10 mile bike ride this morning, I forgot to set my watch for biking but it worked out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Got home and I finished cleaning out the garage and moved the Xterra in and got to work getting the front shocks out and ran into an issue. The lower bolt wouldn’t budge. Heat didn’t do anything, so out came the grinding wheel. I removed the head of the bolt and got it about .25 inches though, then I was trying to bang it though, well at that point I started to get mad and hit it hard, it dislodged and then my finger sliced on the brake guard, lots of blood and ended the repairs for the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it did get me thinking and the impact gun I have delivers 250 ft\/lbs of torque, this hasn’t been much of an issue but it was bought probably in early 2001 when I was working on the cutlass and only use it for taking off tires really. I stared looking around and it’s at the low end of power. Now you can get up to 1500 ft\/lbs but that’ll set you back $150 at HF. I figured I’d check Vevor just to compare and they have a 1400 ft\/lbs for $66. Long story short, I’ve got to wait for the new gun to do the other side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
