Edit: I surprised no one has gotten the easter egg yet tho This was supposed to be like an April Fools episode. "Check out how awesome tiktok tools are!" Wink wink. But one was accidently pretty sweet. It happens 😅
anychance you would be able to try this tool on a die grinder? maybe a .8hp die grinder or something im interested if it overcomes the spring torque the kind of power this would make
That little impact adapter is a perfect tool for someone who already owns a drill, but can occationally use an impact, like for tire lug nuts. Cheap and way way more potent than I would have ever expected. Would love to see them come back on the market and would legit buy 2 or 3 as Xmas gifts in a heart beat.
Not gonna lie i need something like this for my job. I'm an assembly vendor so I build Gazibos and grills and stuff like that and I dont have an impact drill. I'm using an electric screw driver and a 10V drill. This would help out so much. My coworkers are always giving me crap for not having enough torque for things and I'm looking at this little thing like it would make my job so much easier cause my battery's die as fast.
@@brianbello1095why didn't you get an impact driver, or 3 in 1 drill with screw, drill n impact functions? they are more versatile for your work and easier to carry.
I’ve been thinking about seeing what it takes to blow up one of those torque multiplier 😁 That drill impact adapter is pretty cool. I could see that coming in handy for a home gamer.
@@MrMK211516 I usually stick to things I done a few reaction videos on. I’ve always assumed it would work but not practical. It seems I was right but I’d still like to see it explode 😈
Getting some cheap torque multipliers would be a great idea. Some of us have small commercial vehicles to work on that require some crazy torque settings and a decent cheap multiplier would be a great addition to the toolbox
Yea this past week i had to remove and replace 3 different crank pulleys and had to get the 5 foot cheater out literally jumping on the damn thing to get em off then back on with their crazy 180° past 250., like wtf…. These newer higher end deals have some bullshit specs..
the problem that I have found with cheap torque multipliers is that they are almost impossible to calibrate. could you get close enough and be fairly consistent? probably. want to bet $100,000 when you use it on a big diesel motor? probably not. that being said, they are great to have hanging around for some of those stubborn bolts that are just stuck
@@Z-Ack those torq specs are for girls. Small bolts you crank with the wrist. big bolts you use longer lever and the whole arm. case solved. no need for eny diagrams and planetary cycles. never had a bolt come loose or snap...
@@michaelmcgregor3108 In-line torque meters are also a thing. If you have the space to be using a torque multiplier, you also have the room for a meter.
@@vihreelinja4743 you have obviously never dealt with anything of consequence. When it says 155+ 180* you feel like it’s going to pull threads or snap the bolt. But the spec is there for a reason
I absolutely can't believe how much torque this thing made on the dyno, I was never expecting it to be more than a couple hundred beans! Also, glad your daughter enjoyed the real genuine maple syrup :)
I know, right? Then again, every time that thought pops into my head, I question why I wasn’t the person to invent the Snuggie and retire on fat blanket-plus-sleeves stacks. 😅 Mayhaps a design engineer from TTI/SBD/etc will see this and start playing around in Fusion?
That last adapter was sick! It would be a great option for people like my dad who occasionally could use an impact, but only once or twice a year so he won't justify spending money on one. If this is cheap enough it would be a good option as he has a decent drill to use with it.
Definitely. With 2 cars there's 40-48 lug nuts/bolts to take off and on when switching between winter and summer tires (80-96 total per year), so a $40 adapter would be perfect. I'd rather spend a little extra on a drill that gets a lot more use during the year.
Ok, I was 100% expecting that adapter to be a total bust, and about 99% certain it was literally going to bust within the first few seconds of use from Da Beans But holy as seen on TV Batman, that little thing shocked the Nut Buddy right out of me 🤣 Seriously, it impressed me so much that I have a window open trying to find one to keep in my mobile toolbox! And that adjustment spring tension...that is definitely one of those “why didn’t I think of that” ideas that I hope to see more of Take care
I remember seeing those Mastercraft impact adapters for sale. This video kinda makes me wish I bought one. I don’t think it would hold up to the abuse an impact wrench can take, but in a pinch, it’s a pretty amazing gizmo.
I can't even remember why I got it originally, I didn't ever really use it...I do remember trying to sell it at a garage sale for $5 and nobody bought it though lol
The most common sized nut I have to tighten is a 1-11/16", where I use a breaker bar with 8' of cheater tube to reach the torque requirement. I have thought about getting a torque multiplier for the 3/4" and 1" drive range. There isn't anything fun about getting old as you can always remember how easy it was in your prime.
@Andy Ruse Well, where I come from, you just jump on and kick the end of the wrench until the nut comes loose. Props for remembering to do that before you actually jack up the car and have the wheels free spinning... But a few episodes ago, we saw that dinky kitchen mixer loose nuts way out of it's weight class, so maybe that is the right implement for road-side emergencies instead of a cheater bar.
was expecting to to go up in smoke, mastercraft isnt a great brand but they do have some good stuff its all trial and error whether its going to break instantly or last
This thing is genius. With the kind of drills we have now, something like this would be awesome to help save some bucks while also gaining flexibility. The adjustable spring is great. You don't always need full beans and you might not always have the best drill to make it chooch.
LOVE this channel, very cool tests. I would also enjoy seeing how actual expensive torque multipliers I as never having experience with one of those, these tiktok hacks are golden. 1 or 2 make it through hundreds is not bad.
On the topic of torque multipliers, I have used a genuine nut buddy, meant for semi truck wheels to remove dozer cutting edges. It will absolutely twist off a 1" gr12 bolt if you crank it the wrong way. Without over exerting myself, and I'm by no means a large gorilla on tools. Would like to see it on a torque dyno.
Wow I'm really taken aback by how good that Mastercraft attachment is! I definitely like the idea of impact drivers having an adjustment for spring tension. 👍👍
Hey man, let me tell you! Drills today may be better... but my 18v Dewalt XRP 3 speed Hammer Drill with all metal gearbox of over 15years ago certainly didn't suck! I abused that poor thing so bad! 2" bimetal hole saws through 1" plate steel! 1" drill through 3" steel blocks! At one point it even quit running and had smoke pouring out of the brush vents! When it cooled down, it ran again and lived on for another 5 years! It took me 15 years to finally burn it out, and for being one tool in a four tool kit for a measly $250... it paid for itself a hundred times over! This is one of the biggest reasons I'm sold on Dewalt for life!
Ohhhh finally something I can add real life experience to. So, I used a beefy torque multiplier several times a day for years assembling large mandrels where I work. I believe the threads were 2 1/16". Not entirely sure, but they were properly massive bolts that were a couple feet long. The torque multipliers can add an absurd amount of power. They do wear out over time, but as long as you can give it the proper support, those things are unbelievable. Pucker factor 9000 😂😂😂
Yes same here we would do big mill gears in sections and the bigger ones use studs a few feet long and 3 3/4" diameter section to section,we had a 10,000 ftlbs hydraulic torque wrench to tighten or loosen the studs now on the older studs that have worked a while we had a 400lbs 1 1/2" torque multiplier with a 24,000 ratio reduction and we have twisted hardened 3" studs completely off with it
Had some huge bolts that I had to torque at work, they hold shaker motors for a mining shaker deck, I think either 1 7/8” or 2” thread and about 2-3 ft. Long, but we had to torque them to like 3000 ft lbs. we used an air powered torque gun, and damn that thing was insane. We also had a torque multiplier, but that thing is kinda a pain in the ass. Torque guns are just significantly better, but they’re expensive as all hell, some battery powered ones can cost up to 20k or something insane like that
I did truck tires for a while at a corporate truck stop, we used the nut buddy when the 1” D ring impact wouldn’t take off a lug, it worked every time.
When I started at my job years ago, we had an old "4-1" torque multiplier. My supervisor told me it was 4-1, because it rotated 1 on the output for every 4 on the input... ... except it only multiplied by 3.33, which means they'd been under-tightening everything for years, not to mention they'd occasionally use an impact on it to break stuff loose. We got a new one.
For what its worth, "Mastercraft" is often sold in the US under the name "Masterforce" at Menards. Bot sure if menards is just a regional chain up here in the northern midwest.
Mastercraft isn't just Canada-specific, it's Canadian Tire's in-house brand. The quality of Mastercraft stuff varies widely from SKU to SKU and people tend to call them "Mastercrap" because they generally aim for the same price-quality tier as Ryobi.
Just a thought a standard lug wrench is about 14 inches place wrench parallel to ground at the 9:00 to loosen and step on the handle. A 100 lb person will apply 100 foot lbs. So there you go.
Hey, love the channel. Seeing the hand drill and adapter combo made me wonder if you'd be interested in testing a manual impact wrench? I'm talking about a Swench. They were made by Curtiss-Wright, then a company called PowerHawk and now I think Snap-on has the rights but it's all the same tool. It looks like a heavy ratchet wrench with a square drive on each side but the head of the wrench is the hammer and the spring is in the handle. Tension is adjustable with an Allen key. You just turn it until the spring is compressed and let's go, slamming the hammer, drive and socket into the nut. I may not be doing a good job explaining how it works but there are a few videos on RUclips demonstrating their use. Apparently they were designed for the military for repairing heavy equipment in the field. Anyway I've got the baby of the lineup, the 1/2" model and I think it's rated at 400ft/lbs but it'd be interesting to see what it's actually capable of. I rarely use it anyway, I bought it more as a curiosity than anything else. But my experience using it for lug nuts has shown me that the speed at which you crank the handle has a lot to do with it. There are bigger models that claim to hit thousands of lb/ft so maybe if some other people could loan you theirs you could make a whole video about them. A comparison to other oddball impacts wouldn't be bad either. Just don't cut it apart, lol!
I did a bit of research on the Swench. It sounds like a handy tool. The smaller one can put out 400ftlb of torque with only 39 lb input. That's a great increase.
I definitely want one. I don't do enough impacting of nuts to justify a pricy full on tool, so a cheap little adapter like this would be perfect for me and a lot of other people I'd think
ANYBODY, seriously...anybody that buys tools online should be watching this channel. Not only the easy-to-listen-to-commentary rock solid, but because I do buy online A LOT. This channel is going to save me a ton of headaches with returning tools u thought would do. I always made the the excuse for buying online saying that i save so much it's worth it. It's not. Thx guy(s)...gonna b a great ride.
Norbar makes some impressive industrial torque multipliers. I’ve got one that will shear 1 1/8” hex sockets using only a standard 24” 1/2” drive breaker bar for input…makes a guy jumpy when things break.
A good friend of mine told me how way back when he was a young millwright in training he would chain up torque multipliers on the big stuff that didn't want to come apart.
That adjustable collar idea would really help with usability like you said, even on torque drivers for when the screw isn't tight in there or needs to be smashed in
That Mastercraft adaptor seems like OEM of company called 'Impact Head' (IHW001) and I want one, but nowhere to find selling it. Yet again TTC reviewed it, now I hope they run the factory line again.
I just bought that DCF891 because of this channel and it is a beast for sure. I needed a good impact but didn’t want a heavy high torque. DCF891 fits me perfectly
Finally a Mastercraft product tested! I was certainly shocked by the results. That high speed camera is great to have, I'm glad you got it. The maple syrup was a nice touch as well 👍
I am so glad that I already bought a braker-bar for my lugnuts... too many places that rotate tires over-torque the lugnuts too often, that I stand over them when they rotate my tires... And, if one lives in the Salt-Belt, one MUST have a braker-bar to change a flat!
I had a torque multiplier that I 7sed a few times to take the wheels off my semi truck. I was happy with it but it was definitely a lot slower than the proper impact.
I have the OTC 7637 torque multiplier and can vouch that it definitely works, but I’d LOVE to know what the actual multiplier is for tightening. They advertise it as 3.3:1 with a 6% friction loss (sooo… 3.1:1?), but can I rely on that when tightening with a torque wrench?
It's rare to see an actual innovation like this. Nowadays we usually see innovation when technology advances but this is nothing but good solid thinking!
I'm absolutely interested in some torque multiplier testing. We use them at work for flywheel and crank bolts on 2500hp diesels and it would be nice to know if we should actually be trusting them without verification/calibration. An OTC 4:1 is our workhorse most days.
I would love an adjustable impact. You wouldn't need a smaller impact for sensitive stuff, you could just have a single big one that's adjustable and call it a day.
They got speed settings, and analog trigger, which is exactly what youre asking for. Some are better than others, you dont want trigger lag or trigger insensitivity for sensitive jobs so Makita is hard to beat here.
Not that this torque multiplier is worth using, but just back it off to remove the tension. It won't start loosening the nut until it tensions up in the opposite direction. As for the featured tool, I agree with the utility of building the adjustment into an impact gun, but wouldn't use the drill add-on due to the unwieldy length.
YES!! Have one, and wish I could buy another one, but unfortunately cannot be found anymore... The only weak spot is the plastic, which the housing is made of. Mine cracked along the front, then eventually the crack advanced around and the front of the body just separated, rendering it useless... Still have it, and planning on fixing it with a metallic front replacement...
Quite interesting. At in one time I was thinking of getting one of those hand crank type wrenches. To get what I thought would be a good one it was more than a battery impact wrench. This pretty much proved me right. On the one for the drill, I never seen one of those. If I did I might have gotten one. Slick device. A lot of battery impacts have an adjustment on them, not as adjustable as the drill powered one, usually just three positions.
I did *not* expect that out of the drill adaptor. That thing is sick. Makes sense though, it would be a massive drill motor to house that big ass hammer and spring, but thats not a problem for an attachment.
That little tool is fantastic especially for a small DIYer who doesn't have the property to have some of the better industrial/Mechanic shop tools. Hell I'd love to see them make that again. I'd buy it.
Not an fool, I have the blue one pictured at 0:46. It does work on semi-truck lug nuts, just take a lot of work. Good for Owner Ops that have an issue hours from the nearest shop.
Yeah that drill impact adapter is pretty cool. There's definitely a market for that. More in the DIY market then the professionals. Seeing that one a impact would be sweet tho. Might give my 1/2 inch mid tourqe just enough beans to where I don't gotta buy the high torque.
We have higher end version of these torque multipliers for changing tyres on our semi trailers on the deck spreading trailers. When the deck is spread you can not get a long enough bar on the wheel but due to lack of space
For an impact wrench it is rather Mass Moment of Inertia × Angular velocity. We are not pushing steadily but striking, which results in high peak force in a short period of time.
I for one would love to see these back on the market. I haven't bought a real electric impact yet. I like the idea of and add on for a drill I already have.
Put an impact behind the drill impact, also put an impact behind the torque adapter. Maybe even put all 3 together. I’m certain this would make some sort of super impact.
Asked 2 times on your email for mastercraft/Motomaster and Maximum. Happy to finaly get one on your channel. I do live in canada/québec and wish to see more and can even buy and send it to you if needed.
Used torque multipliers for disassembly and assembly of turbine engines. Had to break torque of oil tubes and shafts. The one we used though was enerpacs sweeneys. Smaller ones ranging to 13,000 ft lbs and bigger ones up to 30,000 ft lbs
I would have never expected that one of these adapters actually worked really good! Now I have to find one for myself. Too bad nobody seems to be selling this Mastercraft Impact Adapter anymore.
LOL... I like how you thanked them for the "loan"... after you cut out the side. I'll remember not to "loan" you my car... I might get it back with a cutout in my hood.

Nioce, good luck my guy! Thanks for showing people this weird guy
I have an impact wrench I want to send to you guys for testing as part of the weird TikTok stuff if you’d like!!
@@TorqueTestChannel I had told Jim and he said I should message you all on ig so I did but haven’t heard back 🤛
Nice :) won't take you long!
@@SomeGuysGarage much love man appreciate the encouragement
Just a thought a standard lug wrench is about 14 inches place wrench parallel to ground at the 9:00 to loosen and step on the handle. A 100 lb person will apply 100 foot lbs. So there you go.
TTC waxing poetic about a Mastercraft tool... we're really in an alternate timeline, aren't we?
I would love to get one of those (2nd one tested) for my son! Awesome to see a gimmick that actually works.
I kind of wish those impact adaptors still existed. I'd absolutely get one
Torque multipliers are mandatory for semi-truck lug nuts, it's near impossible to get them off with a breaker bar and whatever pipe you put on it.
not if you get the whole gang to stand on it
Hey, love the channel. Seeing the hand drill and adapter combo made me wonder if you'd be interested in testing a manual impact wrench? I'm talking about a Swench. They were made by Curtiss-Wright, then a company called PowerHawk and now I think Snap-on has the rights but it's all the same tool. It looks like a heavy ratchet wrench with a square drive on each side but the head of the wrench is the hammer and the spring is in the handle. Tension is adjustable with an Allen key. You just turn it until the spring is compressed and let's go, slamming the hammer, drive and socket into the nut. I may not be doing a good job explaining how it works but there are a few videos on RUclips demonstrating their use. Apparently they were designed for the military for repairing heavy equipment in the field. Anyway I've got the baby of the lineup, the 1/2" model and I think it's rated at 400ft/lbs but it'd be interesting to see what it's actually capable of. I rarely use it anyway, I bought it more as a curiosity than anything else. But my experience using it for lug nuts has shown me that the speed at which you crank the handle has a lot to do with it. There are bigger models that claim to hit thousands of lb/ft so maybe if some other people could loan you theirs you could make a whole video about them. A comparison to other oddball impacts wouldn't be bad either. Just don't cut it apart, lol!
I did a bit of research on the Swench. It sounds like a handy tool. The smaller one can put out 400ftlb of torque with only 39 lb input. That's a great increase.
That looks like a handy tool, but not $800-$3,000 handy.
I definitely want one. I don't do enough impacting of nuts to justify a pricy full on tool, so a cheap little adapter like this would be perfect for me and a lot of other people I'd think
I would like to see the torque multiplier tests.... I've been wanting to get one myself
ANYBODY, seriously...anybody that buys tools online should be watching this channel. Not only the easy-to-listen-to-commentary rock solid, but because I do buy online A LOT. This channel is going to save me a ton of headaches with returning tools u thought would do. I always made the the excuse for buying online saying that i save so much it's worth it. It's not.
Thx guy(s)...gonna b a great ride.
I never thought i'd see Mastercraft grace this channel! Maybe you'll get to try out their impact wrenches someday!
Canadian Tire tools have come a long way.
I'd be happy to get TTC anything they need out of Canuckistan lol
Best value in Canada if you wait for one of their ludicrous 70% off sales.
Norbar makes some impressive industrial torque multipliers. I’ve got one that will shear 1 1/8” hex sockets using only a standard 24” 1/2” drive breaker bar for input…makes a guy jumpy when things break.
The real hack is changing that tire without the car being jacked up off the ground
A good friend of mine told me how way back when he was a young millwright in training he would chain up torque multipliers on the big stuff that didn't want to come apart.
bet they stopped selling them so they could sell impacts instead of a 40 dollar tool lol
It's not a hack when it's a tool made for what you are working on.
Would really like to see torque multipliers tested. Specifically the accuracy while using one to torque bolts.
I've got one of these. MasterCraft tools used to be sold in Wisconsin at Fleet Farm and Menards.
That adjustable collar idea would really help with usability like you said, even on torque drivers for when the screw isn't tight in there or needs to be smashed in
That Mastercraft adaptor seems like OEM of company called 'Impact Head' (IHW001) and I want one, but nowhere to find selling it. Yet again TTC reviewed it, now I hope they run the factory line again.
The slow mo and the framing of the video is fantastic 👌 10/10 please do more!
I just bought that DCF891 because of this channel and it is a beast for sure. I needed a good impact but didn’t want a heavy high torque. DCF891 fits me perfectly
I have never needed an adjustable impact so badly before, that adapter is incredible!
Finally a Mastercraft product tested! I was certainly shocked by the results. That high speed camera is great to have, I'm glad you got it. The maple syrup was a nice touch as well 👍
Yes, get the multipliers! I have been eyeing a set to keep in my truck but idk if its worth it.
That drill impact is actually amazing. I might have to pick one up now.
I'd love to see more of this "crazy" stuff!
I am so glad that I already bought a braker-bar for my lugnuts... too many places that rotate tires over-torque the lugnuts too often, that I stand over them when they rotate my tires...
And, if one lives in the Salt-Belt, one MUST have a braker-bar to change a flat!
i wish they'd make those again. thats definitely a nifty little gimmick that actually seems to work
I had a torque multiplier that I 7sed a few times to take the wheels off my semi truck. I was happy with it but it was definitely a lot slower than the proper impact.
I have the OTC 7637 torque multiplier and can vouch that it definitely works, but I’d LOVE to know what the actual multiplier is for tightening. They advertise it as 3.3:1 with a 6% friction loss (sooo… 3.1:1?), but can I rely on that when tightening with a torque wrench?
It's rare to see an actual innovation like this. Nowadays we usually see innovation when technology advances but this is nothing but good solid thinking!
I'm absolutely interested in some torque multiplier testing. We use them at work for flywheel and crank bolts on 2500hp diesels and it would be nice to know if we should actually be trusting them without verification/calibration.
An OTC 4:1 is our workhorse most days.
I would love an adjustable impact. You wouldn't need a smaller impact for sensitive stuff, you could just have a single big one that's adjustable and call it a day.
I think that's why they supply them with a output adjusting device in the shape of a trigger, not an on/off switch bud
They got speed settings, and analog trigger, which is exactly what youre asking for. Some are better than others, you dont want trigger lag or trigger insensitivity for sensitive jobs so Makita is hard to beat here.
@@pflaffik using a different speed is something completely different than an adjustable anvil, lol.
My 20v DeWalt impact gun has 2 settings and my impact driver has 3. It's two tools but covers everything.
I bought the mastercraft drill adapter for $6 at a thrift store new in the package and was quite shocked how hard it hit. It was a great buy.
This thing is PERFECT for the junkyard..... cheap, works, and doesn't have a bright red "steal me" sign on it.
Not that this torque multiplier is worth using, but just back it off to remove the tension. It won't start loosening the nut until it tensions up in the opposite direction. As for the featured tool, I agree with the utility of building the adjustment into an impact gun, but wouldn't use the drill add-on due to the unwieldy length.
YES!! Have one, and wish I could buy another one, but unfortunately cannot be found anymore... The only weak spot is the plastic, which the housing is made of. Mine cracked along the front, then eventually the crack advanced around and the front of the body just separated, rendering it useless... Still have it, and planning on fixing it with a metallic front replacement...
Quite interesting. At in one time I was thinking of getting one of those hand crank type wrenches. To get what I thought would be a good one it was more than a battery impact wrench. This pretty much proved me right.
On the one for the drill, I never seen one of those. If I did I might have gotten one. Slick device.
A lot of battery impacts have an adjustment on them, not as adjustable as the drill powered one, usually just three positions.
I did *not* expect that out of the drill adaptor.
That thing is sick.
Makes sense though, it would be a massive drill motor to house that big ass hammer and spring, but thats not a problem for an attachment.
A $40 attachment that will turn my drill into a Dewalt 891?! Yes please!
As a Canadian, I'd like to apologize for the amazing performance of that impact adapter.
testing the "heavy duty" torque multiplier from Vevor should be interesting, looks way more sturdy and is only marginally more expensive
That little tool is fantastic especially for a small DIYer who doesn't have the property to have some of the better industrial/Mechanic shop tools. Hell I'd love to see them make that again. I'd buy it.
3:54 you can tighten lug nuts with them, you just have to turn it back a little, that won't undo the tightened bolts.
I have one of those master craft adapters. Bought it for only 12 dollars quite a few years ago. That thing has always worked great for me.
Not an fool, I have the blue one pictured at 0:46. It does work on semi-truck lug nuts, just take a lot of work. Good for Owner Ops that have an issue hours from the nearest shop.
Yeah that drill impact adapter is pretty cool. There's definitely a market for that. More in the DIY market then the professionals. Seeing that one a impact would be sweet tho. Might give my 1/2 inch mid tourqe just enough beans to where I don't gotta buy the high torque.
Hell yes it should be made again, what a great tool a fraction of the cost of some impacts and better!
We have higher end version of these torque multipliers for changing tyres on our semi trailers on the deck spreading trailers. When the deck is spread you can not get a long enough bar on the wheel but due to lack of space
For an impact wrench it is rather Mass Moment of Inertia × Angular velocity. We are not pushing steadily but striking, which results in high peak force in a short period of time.
woooow!! i want one for yesterday. Thank You for this video. Did not knew i had such thing available a few kilometers from where i live.
#1 standing on the wheel brace always worked for me.
I for one would love to see these back on the market.
I haven't bought a real electric impact yet.
I like the idea of and add on for a drill I already have.
0:10 I died at “Nut Buddy Jr” 💀
Put an impact behind the drill impact, also put an impact behind the torque adapter. Maybe even put all 3 together. I’m certain this would make some sort of super impact.
That little adapter stomps half the guns out there!
Can't wait for your next Frankenstein! Still hoping you partner with a machinist channel to make a custom hammer mechanism!
I’d love to see some of the actual good torque multipliers
Can you put that adapter on an impact driver? I doubt it would work very well, but I would like to see some double impact action.
In this scenario, impact wrench will work just like a drill because there won't be enough torque for the camming action.
Asked 2 times on your email for mastercraft/Motomaster and Maximum. Happy to finaly get one on your channel. I do live in canada/québec and wish to see more and can even buy and send it to you if needed.
Half.the time i have no idea what going on in these videos... but i like it..😂😂😂
love that you mention honda crank bolts. i've been struggling with one
Used torque multipliers for disassembly and assembly of turbine engines. Had to break torque of oil tubes and shafts. The one we used though was enerpacs sweeneys. Smaller ones ranging to 13,000 ft lbs and bigger ones up to 30,000 ft lbs
I’d love to see you test the old VW axle removal tools. Manual and with the gear reduction.
I would have never expected that one of these adapters actually worked really good! Now I have to find one for myself. Too bad nobody seems to be selling this Mastercraft Impact Adapter anymore.
That drill to impact adaptor is really cool!
LOL... I like how you thanked them for the "loan"... after you cut out the side. I'll remember not to "loan" you my car... I might get it back with a cutout in my hood.
Of course we told him the plan haha
It was a one way "loan" :) not to worry, I suggested he could destroy it if he wanted.
5:00 they were all lose and what freak loosens lug nuts when the wheel is still on the ground?
