After each nut is loosened the remaining ones get tighter. This is why when your removing a manifold or header the last bolt breaks or strips out. Once you loosen your first couple bolts tighten them back up a bit and it will help not snap any bolts

Excellent test. I just bought the 3/8 inch cobalt right angle impact wrench and it is fantastic. I drive a civic, so I don't need the big Kobalt that you have for your truck, but my father was a trucker for 25 years and it was cool to watch you remove your tire with a consumer bought impact wrench. Truckers are the best - keep trucking!!

*I absolutely love this set **MyBest.Tools** should have upgraded to the 20V sooner. The impact driver is a must have for driving screws; compact and all muscle.*

looks like those lugs are right at the limit of the tool. good to know it can remove semi truck lugs that were overtorqued

Probably loosen up faster if the wheels doesn't spin.

I don't have the model you have, I have the next model down from it. But, I also don't own a tractor / trailer. Mine fits my needs to the Tee. It takes off every nut and loosens every bolt on my car and van. Works perfect for me. I liked it so much that went out and bought the Kobalt 1/4" drive 24 volt impact. Even it takes off the wheel lugs on my van and me car. I only get the 1/2" impact out if I get one too tight for the 1/4" drive. 40 years ago I had a Craftsman 115 volt 1/2" impact. It was junk and could not take off wheel lugs. I was afraid to get my Kobalt but thanks to youtube videos, I learned they have come long with with electric impact wrenches . Kobalt makes great tools. ......and I don't work for Lowe's. Barry

My lug nuts backed off within 500 miles after tighten them with my XTR. I felt a slight vibration, and my directional tabs had moved. I hit the lug nuts with the 1" Milwaukee, and i was ready to roll. The XTR is better than nothing.

My boss dropped my previous model Kobalt impact off a truck about 8 feet in the air. It died, but he gave me the money to replace it. I put more money with it and picked up the xtr. Haven't used it yet, but it's beefy. If it's just a little better than the previous model, I'm happy.

Half inch drive impacts are not meant for Truck Wheel lugs, a 1 inch drive impact is recommended. But in an emergency situation this will do the trick at least once.

Your hands are so big they make that impact look like the impact driver.

I have both quarter inch and half inch XTR's and they are animals plus I have the DeWalt 899 and Milwaukee 1400 kobalt stays right with them and has done everything they can do!

no one has done a comparison between this and the Milwaukee. Why?

They have. Milwaukee is best. But for the price I own this Kobalt.

Its specd to 750lbs ft tighten. Id have loved you to have tightened the nuts back up and check with a torgue wrench what the drill could tighten to. Just to confirm at least 450 minimum

Nice demonstration there, but a semi lug nuts should call for Milwaukee M18 fuel 3/4” or even the 1” impact wrenches. 3/4” rated for 1,600ft-lbs, while the 1” is absolutely insane, rated for 1,800ft-lbs ! AND THE NEWEST OF THE NEWST 1” M18 fuel that looks like a mini gun is has scary power, ..rated for 2000 ft-lbs !
