electric impact wrench for pulley bolt?

[Mihnea Cotet]

Hmmmmmmm, I don't think an electric impact wrench could work for a bolt
that's tightened to 450 Nm...or whatever lb/ft figure it is. :-)

BUT a truck 3/4" drive impact wrench can break this bolt loose without even
needing to lock the crank, ask me how I know it :-)


HTH,

Mihnea
