Would this work to take off lug nuts on a tire? I drive 170 miles daily and need something to help me get the lug nuts off.

Yes,I think so,it does a great job considering it's small size,I love it,real handy to have around&comes; with an extra battery,5 stars from me.

No it is not big enough for lug nuts but is good for basic mechanic work like valve covers or water pumps.

This is not designed to do that. It is a great tool for numerous jobs but not for handling the torque on a car lug nut.

Yes, I think it would work fine, but if the lug nuts are really torqued down, it might have difficulty breaking them loose. I use it with my vintage cars and it works well.

I've found that to initially break the lugs loose on my vehicle, it doesn't have enough torque. However, once I break them free, it does work well to zip them lugs the rest of the way off and back on. It's handy, but it does not totally work as well as a regular air impact.

As long as the majority of what you are tightening is away from the edge of this torque Wrench's range it should work well for you and offer a wider ranged of use. If you are torquing stuff that is under 25 foot pounds you will probably need a 1/4" or 3/8" torque wrench to get the lower range. I prefer this wrench for the stuff you have described.

I haven't used mine for lugs but I did use it to remove the pinion gear nut and it had plenty of torque for that. I imagine the lugs wouldn't be an issue.

I would not suggest trying to use the splined lug socket to remove the damaged lug you have. Would suggest getting a damaged nut removal socket of appropriate size from sears/home depot/ Lowes and then replace lug with a new one once you get it off.

Highly unlikely. I used it the other day to run a nut down on a 1/2" stud to hold a vice to a metal bench. It worked well, BUT, taking lug nuts loose from a car is a different thing altogether. The electric impacts that can typically have 1/2" square drive for sockets and usually have at least 300 ft pounds of torque.... as good as this Dewalt impact drive is... it's designed around a 1/4" collet/he drive and has torque in the area of inch pounds, not foot pounds .

This puller attaches to the wheel studs, it is held in place with the lug nuts and can be used with the jacking screw as shown or fastened to a slide hammer. As long as the lug nuts match up to the holes I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Hello Jamie. More than enough to remove lug nuts. For my aluminum rims the nuts are at about 100 ft lbs. The impact wrench in this set goes up to 650 ft lbs. There is an adjustable setting on the wrench so you do not over torque the nuts. Not sure on the warranty but I did call Ingersoll Rand customer service right after receiving the wrench set to ask about caring for them. ( oiling and such) very nice and very helpful. This is a great set and I really don't know how I managed without it. Hope this helps>:)

i was disappointed with the torque when removing tire lugs, seemed to be about 60 ft/lbs but was using a 1.2ah battery from my cordless drill. I have since bought the recommended 3ah battery but haven't had a chance to try it.

Although I have never tried it I would say no. It has lots of power but lug nuts require from 45 Ft.lbs to 400+ ft. lbs.

A light tap with a metal object, like a hammer, tip if a screwdriver, etc should break it loose. You just need the outer housing to break away a little from the teeth that are grabbing your lug nut.

I think so. I got it just for torquing down the lug nuts. It has enough leverage to remove the lug nuts as well. As far as spark plugs, I think it'll work if you have some various length extensions available, if you need them. It's a long torque wrench, so you'll have plenty of leverage.

never used this impact driver for that. you want to check with harbour frieght. they have a impact driver especially for taking of lug nuts. I have one and it works great.

A torque wrench is not needed to remove bolts or lug nuts. Some Ford spark plugs use a torque setting so you don't break the plugs. I really like this model for heavier jobs a smaller torque wrench would be good for spark plugs.
