Thanks Nick! Exactly what I needed to see. Saved me from going to the High torque. The mid will be all that I need. Cheers !

Thanks! I am a trucker, and came to research both. You sold me on the mid torque!

Just want to let you know I, or should I say WE really appreciate your help and guidance you give out Nick! We appreciate you man! Thanks for everything you do and keep on doing what you do! Thanks to you, allot of us will become future technicians or will gain allot of knowledge. Thanks 🙏🏻

Thank s for the appreciation man!

The right tool for the right job creates less stress is my mantra. A recent encounter with rusted on mower blades, and shearing of the heads of those bolts, sent me on a quest, after seeing the problem solved using a rechargeable impact wrench. I am really glad I saw your video. What a big help. I was trying to sort out what would be the best tool to purchase for myself. You guys lead me down the right path. Milwaukee should pay you guys, or at least sponsor you for a great representation of their product. Thanks to you I will be buying the Medium Torque Milwaukee. Thank you.

Thank you,Thank you. Love the video. Very interesting and informational. Love the test results. You guys are some kool dudes. 👍

Great video. Will see if I can get some actual numbers on these this month.

This is just the perfect video that Im looking for! Ordering my mid torque.

I’m a diy’er and have an M12 3/8 stubby and I’ve been thinking about picking up a high torque, but I’m thinking mid-torque after watching this. Thanks for the info.

just a little tip to a fellow Toyota tech from a Toyota tech, punch that detent out of the cv nut before you rattle that off and then you wont ruin threads and also comes off quicker too :) great vid too btw just brought a high torque kit today plan on getting the mid torque aswell for general use

Thank you for another awesome video on Milwaukee 1/2 Impact Wrench.

Im waiting for mid torque to be on sale. Good video! 💯

I have the 2767-20 and that thing's a beast. I replaced the blades on my parents' lawnmower with it, 3 years ago. 17 years of rust, broke that lugnut right off. I would've never gotten it off by hand.

Awesome impacts! The high torque would be great for me in the diesel world.

Good video! Appreciate the info and compassion.

Thanks - quick questions please James…..What about Tractor Tires and other large bolts - do you think mid-torque model will still work larger nuts for very occasional use? Can High-Torque be a problem for cars and such - too much power?

Last night I was doing all 4 tire brake job on f150 with some wheels on it and the half inch high Torque with a new battery couldn't break them loose but love the gun have had it for a year now no need for air

Awesome video! Great content

Was looking for an impact to work on my honda s2000 and do suspension work with.. I was assuming i would need the high torque for doing subframe/control arm bolts and such and this video changed my mind... going with the mid torque!

Thanks guys for the demo 👍

I want one of these even though I have no need for one at the moment. I’d probably just mess around with it if I had one right now. 😂

Excellent demonstration... Just wished I watched it before I snapped a stud off with the big daddy... I was unaware of just how much torque it was capable of

Stumbled on this video whilst I was deciding whether or not to go ahead and buy an impact wrench. My local Napa had a Monthly Special going for a Milwaukee 3/8 Mid Torque w/ 2 batteries and charger and I was still undecided until this video popped up while looking for reviews. Shout out to you Nick! I picked up the Milwaukee package deal! 300 HUGGA DUGGA DOLLAHS well spent! Mahalo for giving out your opinion and making this "review/comparison".

Ugga duggas, you must be watching SMA👍 I've got the big boy and the m12 3/8". Love them both. The stubby 1/2" is next. The real test for the big boy is a trailer hitch ball that's been on for 15 years. Mine blasted one off my kids 1998 explorer bumper hitch.. Took a bit but did it

Guys thanks so much for this awesome video. I own a 2011 Toyota Camry s and I have the M18 High torque. I have not used it yet on my Camry do you think I can use the M18 Mid Torque instead to remove my lug nuts and other jobs instead of that beast High Torque? Also what should the lug nuts be torqued at

This is what I want. Thanks boys 👍👍👍

I have both of them. When bought the Mid Torque and I was really impressed with it. Then, I bought the High Torque, but practically I bought it for nothing because the Mid torque handles everything lol.

@Cruz Ponce I believe they do not, one is high torque and the other one Mid Torque. With the mid torque is more than enough to remove a strut. The Mid torque is also really light and small, I love it.

So do you prefer to use level 1 to tighten the lug nuts on a 1/2 high impact? I decided to go this route just in case I’ll need it for other big projects.

Great review guys! Would you recommend the mid torque for a 2017 Tundra? Keep those vids coming! You gained another sub here.

If you use the high torque for the caliper bolts on any setting above 1 you are going to break something. Torque specs on them are usually less than or about the same as a lugnut. The mid torque is going to take care of 90% of anything you encounter, with less fatigue because its simply lighter and more enjoyable to use. If you are in the salt belt you might need to have the high torque for those stubborn bolts. I’d say get both, use mid as a daily and when necessary pull out the big guns. That’s just my 2 cents.

Hey I have a quick question is it possible for a driver seat airbag to deploy but not the steering wheel airbag? (From a small front end crash) (2016 Corolla S)

Great video! (1) Could you provide a link to where we can buy the protective sleeves; (2) Could you PLEASE provide the make/model and link of the digital torque wrench you use in your videos?

The thing I found with my high torque is that it doesn’t like swollen lug nuts other than that it’s a beast for removing nuts and bolts

@WHO WHO WALKWA I work for a Ford dealership and ford have a chrome cap over the actual lug nut. And over winter time the chrome caps expand and become loose from the actual lug nut. So when you try to take it of sometimes it just impacts and not loosen until the chrom cap brakes off. Found that my co workers mac and snap on cordless impact guns do the same thing not just Milwaukee

I got the mid torque and love it. But it falls flat on some bigger bolts... I wonder if i should get the high torque or ingersoll rand 2235 air impact as back up. Thanks

would the high torque be better suspension work on old rusty cars with seized bolts and nuts?

I have the high torque as well as mid in 1/2 as well as m12 stubby in 1/2. Do you think I should get 3/8 in any of them as well?

Looking to buy a new one and this video is great

can you compare standard batteries vs high output on these wrenches ?

I Like the Milwaukee high output batteries, the 3.0's have almost the same footprint of the 1.5 ah. BAT.

What brand are those red deep sockets? Also which Torque wrench is that? Dope video bro

Thats good to hear, i just ordered one and was torn between the high torque and this.

High torque M18 and stubby m12 is the way to go. M12 line is more useful as a tech. Long neck 3/8 ratchet and right angle 3/8 impact are great also.

This answers my question, it doesn't torque down to spec. Thank you!

Which do you recommend to remove a front hub bearing from a scion xb?

Hey man, sweet video. How do you like working at a Toyota dealership? I’m going into automotive service and would like to start out at a dealership but I’m not sure which. Thanks!

I have both and the high torque is used for 18wheelers all the time

Looks like a fun place to work.

Hi, cool and convenient tool😎, it was very painful to watch. When the hub nut lock was not loosened.😬

I have a mid torque and do everything for me with no problems...

Very helpful!

I work in Lexus. I have been doing cars for 10 years. there is a protection on the axle nut. the flattening must be reflected because it will destroy the axis... why you do thy ???

I have the mid torque and i always double check with a breaker bar how much torque im puttin on lugnuts.always needs a lil more but thats ok.the age of air tools is def over.

Oh yeah the midtorque is my next tool, my maxtorque is just too heavy at times as im feather weigh dude!

Can you do upper control arms and lower control arms with the mid torque

Cool experiment

I work at a tire shop and I've had my high torque for a couple months. I love it but it is a little tiresome to swing the beast around all day. Been thinking about getting the mid torque aswell. I have had 1 instance where my high torque couldn't take of a lug nut. Someone over torqued the piss out of them. I had to get out the 4ft 3/4" breaker bar with a 3ft cheater!! Used all my weight and bending the breaker bar. I don't understand how the lug stud didn't snap.

Its only 100$ difference between them for the bare tool only. But depends on what your going to be working on so cant give you that answer.

All I’ve ever needed at Toyota was the mid-torque, I’ve taken off axle nuts on a Tundra with that thing! I think the only thing that the mid-torque may struggle with is a stubborn crank bolt.

What were the model numbers on the mid torque

part number for the sleeve would be nice

FYI... I've seen many people grab a torque wrench by the end of the handle. Unless the torque wrench was designed to be grasped in such a manner (such as the excellent Brown & Sharpe in-lb series that have a nice ball end), you will apply less torque than intended (sounds counter-intuitive until you work out the force diagram). The portion of the handle that should be grasped is always clearly marked by two lines. Why is this you may ask... Most torque wrenches gauge the applied torque not at the center of the (square drive) head but at an inches or two up the handle. That torque reading is then scaled according to where the manufacturer expects the handle to be grasped. Dial torque wrenches are a different animal... They measure torque precisely at the center of the head, hence are insensitive to where they are grasped on the handle.

Do you have the model number for the mid torque

What about Ford lightning. I work at local 600 and I wanna get the right gun

What socket set you using for the 1/2 in

The mid torque is my go to after 3/8m12 but my high torque is the3/4 m18 fuel problem solver

you guys should test the stubby impact, it takes off lug nuts and is great for most engine work :)
