Iv swapped anvils before on my stubby, and I hate the pin detent, this was helpful in making sure I get the right part first. Thank you for inserting the part number for the anvil itself.
You can use a Dremel tool and shorten and round the detent pin a bit and it will behave like a ball detent. That's what I did. Sockets don't fall off on their own but you can quickly change them without carrying a nail around with you.
Also most annoying part of the detent pin was going to switch sockets and lookin in the hole and seeing that with a 25% chance you were successful in getting the detent pin actually in the hole and having to go get a pick or whatever just to get the dang socket off. Makes a whole ordeal of it when you could of just switched sockets right where you were if the sockets are right in front of ya. Somehow I always seemed to be successful in getting the pin in the hole lol A++ video though. Deff made me feel better about taking mine apart! For sure won't ever buy a detent pin impact or any tool for that matter after my experience. I'm sure it has its place, however, I just haven't found it.
I can't get my impact sockets off my milwaukee friction ring without clamping the socket in a vice and levering the socket off. Should it be like this? My Dewalt is just as difficult! Is it me?
If you want the socket to come off without having to push the detent pin in just put the socket on so the hole is on a different flat than the one with the pin.
Pin detent, it's all about the application. If you're using a drill chuck adapter with an auger bit and have to bore a 3/4 inch hole through a pole with a 16 inch diameter the chuck adapter would slide off the friction ring but the pin detent would hold it in place. I have a friction ring and would like to change it to a pin detent.
pin detention is easy with chrome but many impact sockets have the hole for the pin to slide into and holds it from coming off- good for places where you cant have a heavy extension and socket falling into a place where you dont want it to (food production tight tolerance machinery) and also great when you are pulling a RWD transmission and have jammed an extension into and have to pull it back.
Little late to the party and I see no other comments on it, but you only need to unscrew the nose cone and pull, you don't need to take the pistol grip shell apart.
Do you possibly have any ideas or suggestions for a mke 2767 impact that keeps ruining threads taking lugnuts off? For whatever reason it happened mainly on subarus, but I wasn't gonna keep ruining customers studs/lugnuts since I was positive the cause was the impact itself. It for sure got pretty heavy use over about a year, but now it sits. Maybe I can take it apart and do something to save it? Or maybe you think its totally done and continue not using it? I'm fine not using it, but if I can do something to make it work right I'm more than happy to try! Thanks in advance!!
Hey, maybe I missed it but where did you buy the anvil? Home Depot had a great deal on the 2860 but only caveat is that the only model available had the detent ball
Do you have the 2860-20 (with the pin)? I have this tool and is impossible to remove the sockets. I found more annoying to have to push the pin with a tool everything I have to change a socket that just pull it with the friction ring model. I made the conversion. No more headache.

Hi, My question is, how much power do you really gain with switching the anvil from the detent to hog ring? Milwaukee is stating 450 ft lbs (fastening) - 600 ft lbs (break away) with this model with friction ring. Again, what's the hog ring rating?
I have the same pin detent anvil, and unfortunately it is impossible to remove sockets, must be my socket set, but you need a tool every time, or I need to hit the gym!

great idea. im doing it now. lol
This is actually a useful video. Thumbs up
Thanks for the video!

M18 wording goes to top
Doing it for the first time I suggest that you take pictures during dismantling steps; just in case.

I find the friction ring more annoying that ball detention.

I would like to put one of these CV anvils in my m18 fuel gen 3.5 impact driver to make it a wrench .
Looks like a PIA!!!
What's a good source for parts on a 2655B-20 impact?
I bought mine from Ebay.
@@theotherguy3083 i cant find a replacement for mine anywhere

It's not the power that is gained. It's the convenience of switching sockets to sockets to sockets with ease in comparison to the detent anvil.
Power? That has absolutely nothing to do with power.
Only Milwaukee 👍 2555-20 Sub-Compact impact wrench very very strong M12>M18 ✔️
If you got it with the hog ring on it you wouldn't have to do all this
True. But most of the time, they don't sell ones with the hog ring.
In the states they do we never have trouble getting then its easier to get them on line but most of the time they are I. The store
Can't find it in Puerto Rico. Only the 2860-20.
Really?? There's NO need to depress the detent with a nail etc.! just pull on the socket and it'll come out, detent is spring loaded.
i have one with the detent option and you really need something to depress it because it won't come out
@@orlandojoelpr same
No. I have one of those. It will not let you remove a socket without something to press the pin.

You destroy your Milwaukee 🤣
Uh. Ok
Dude you're clueless.
