Genuinely Impressive!

This thing has consistently exceeded my expectations. The motor is quite large so it's definitely a bit top heavy. I've been using a larger 6Ah battery on mine and that helps counteract some of the mass up top. However, the size and mass is worth it for the power. I didn't have space for an air compressor in my garage and wanted to be able to take a powerful impact driver to events with me and this has been an excellent solution!

This is a beast.

This wrench sits in the trunk of my car along with other tools to change my tire in 20 minutes. It is so powerful that I don't even need to go beyond level 1. You can take the lug nuts off at level 3. When you screw back the lug nuts, use level 1 and do the final tightening using a torque wrench. The tool is incredibly strong. If you tighten at level 3, you will break the shafts of the lug nuts.

It will bust the lug nuts off my F250 and/or fifth wheel camper like it was child's play

This thing has power for days!! It will bust the lug nuts off my F250 and/or fifth wheel camper like it was child's play.

Great for large farm machinery work

Amazing torque. Don't know how I did farm tractor maintenance without it (compressed air access is a problem in the field). Only concern is that the lower unit where the battery attaches seems loose. However, I ordered a second one and it is the same. Likely a "feature" to dampen the tools vibration on the battery.

The other day I had to replace some motor mounts and this removed the bolts easily. Would highly recommend this for heavy duty u

This is one hell of an impact wrench. I bought it because of the high torque and this has not failed me once yet. The other day I had to replace some motor mounts and this removed the bolts easily. Would highly recommend this for heavy duty use. The only downside to the impact wrench is that with the power it has the tool is heavy. My father in law did not like it because of the weight but I do not mind it. There are also a few features on this tool that made it stand out. The battery connector is on a slight swivel that keeps the vibrations from damaging the battery pack. The rubber coating gives the tool a nice grip without being rough to hold. all in all a decent tool.

Another Makita winner!

Awesome tool bought it to get harmonic balancer off motor and it worked great. I've been trying to use it everywhere to remove the tightest bolts i can find. Hardest bolt it has removed were the lugs on a semi to replace the drum and brake pads. It took a bit of impacting but it got all the lugs off with one battery and it was only a 3AH battery at that. Love this tool, its built solid and seems like it will last a long time. Makita makes a great product. If you're working on cars often with no air supply this is a must have tool!

Don't break your wrists! This is a rodeo bull for bolts!

Don't break your wrist! I was happy with my older makita cordless impact, it's single speed, heavy, and is rather large, but makes 375 lb/ft which made it suitable for just about all the work I have besides class 8 trucks' larger fasteners (tractor trailers) This thing on the other hand? Game changer. Used it earlier for the first real work it's done, 1 1/16" lugs on 3 wheels on a 7 car trailer with 3 dexter 12k axles. All tires were installed with a 1" roadside service pneumatic impact- and this battery powered makita broke all 24 lugs loose with very little effort. This tool is money well spent, the balance is better than prior models, the control is much more precise thanks to a rheostat trigger vs. the prior single speed. I'm going to retire the earlier model I've been torturing for the past 3 years to "light duty-" or domestic use. This tool is a game changer. Tons of grunt without dragging a cord or hose everywhere.

This tool is great!!

This tool is great!!! Im a tech for honda and I've been using this gun for a little bit now and its the best money i ever spent.

Great tool!

Got item today used at work removing lug nuts of school bus, they are 1 -5/16" they had been installed using a 3/4" air impact gun until it stopped moving, removed same with my new cordless impact wrench no problem removing, will use this on road calls for flat tires on school vans, no longer using breaker bar, rather work smarter not harder.

Love Makita products

This is the monster tool I was looking for! And I know it will last as long as the smaller model I purchased in 2006. Those batteries from 2006 still hold a full charge and last as long as when they were new. Love Makita products!
