    Milwaukee Impact

    What Milwaukee Impact are you guys using? M12 or M18? I would be using mainly for wheel lugs. Is there a big difference of power/torque between the two? I see the M18 is available in 1/2" but I only see 3/8" for the M12. Thanks for input!

      I use the m18 they make two versions I think one is 650lb/ft and the other is 1200. I have The smaller and love it. I've seen alot of touring teams use the 3/8 or some variation of the 12. I always felt like you would possibly struggle with the 12 in a pinch or with a low battery. I like what I have, one of the smaller batteries will last a whole racing weekend running 2 nights including wash day.

        ^^agree 100%. The 18 will work right up until it has nothing left. We use the smaller one with a torque extension.

          I use the 2652-20 model. Its 18V, and will create about 180ft-lbs of torque. Used it for several years now for lug nuts. Very pleased.
