gravelrash 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Hi everyone, not sure if this is the right section for this but just been bought a Mac Allister 1/2" drive impact driver as an early b/day pressy from my better half. Got to say its bloody fantastic! its only 14.4v 140Nm but soooo powerful. Been going over the bike undoing siezed up bolts although common sense is needed on tightening (feel safer to use a spanner or rachet) My brother has just brought his Blackbird round to do f/seals shud make doing the damper bolt a dream anyway just thought i'd share my delight. (maybe should be under maintenance ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oslin06 0 Posted January 30, 2011 I got one from Lidl last year the same 140 lbs feet varible runs on compressed air, for £27 very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gravelrash 0 Posted January 30, 2011 Wish I had room for a compressor oslin06 would be really usefull for loads of jobs. Mates got a decent capacity compressor with all the gear but he has a double garage and a workshed, Lucky bugger! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Went with mine as its handy not to have a lead but looks a good buy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
