What kind of Impact Gun do you have?

I have a Coleman 230ft/lbs gun right now, but wondering if its worth it to get a Campbell Hausfeld 450ft/lb gun instead?

Is 230 more than enough for average stuff? What is everyone running?

what kind of stuff are you doing? 450 ft/lbs that's alot of torque. If you do industrial, then it is worth it. Know what you are using it for, but if you don't mind 230, then get the better one. If it was up to me, not saying I have lots of money, but I would go with the 450... that's just me.

Just home use.

Like suspension installs etc, I just purchased a grinder this past weekend from CT and attached a metal cut off wheel and its like a knife through butter on those LCA i have to replace this week.

Hopefully 3 ton jack and engine hoist in the near future for any work I want to try out

Holy... go with the 450... assuming you don't mind 230 more. Any other brands for cheaper price?

Install some stuff for ppl and you'll make the money back no prob..

yeh i might just save up for that 450lb one or see if anyone has any used ones for sale.

A guy I know has a 800ft/lb unit that he uses to do swaps etc and it rips off nuts like there butta lol, he ripped the bolt that was attached to my shock that is welded on like it was nothing.
