NE1 have a real impact I can borrow?
I have a "heavy duty" Husky (Home Depot brand) 1/2 impact, but I need a STRONG one to zip off some lower control arms bolts on a Ford Explorer. torque spec on them is like 260 ft/lbs and they have been on for a while.
I'm going to buy a breaker bar tomorrow and see if i can get it off that way. |

Just FYI on bolts like this. A MAP torch is your best friend. Heat makes the bolts swell and breaks the corrosion, then let them cool a bit, and you can usually pull them out without drama.
