this is the impact i got from amazon. amazing power. Im a med duty mechanic and it takes off everything on a 5ton dump truck. I only had to bust out the 1" IR once for some rusted on lug nuts.

Don't know if it's the same one, but mine has three impact adjustment and 450ft.lbs torque. I've had it for about two years, paid maybe $125 and has done well. Just look at the spec's to see the torque rating. If it's around 225-250 stay away from that one. I had the lower rated one and it didn't last long.

340 ft lbs isn't a heck of alot, but for $40 you can't complain. Everybody has let you know how great IR is which they are but they are gonna cost you. I supose the sears model is ok for removing lug nuts. If you get it home and it sucks just take it back, I've done that wit a small air ratchet. The guy didn't even open the box to check if it was there. I think the best gun for a resonable price would be a IR 231.

Thanks everyobe for the FYI-
Yeah, 340 lbs wasn't a lot but my inlaws got me one (surprise) for x-mas (haven't opened the gift yet) and they got it on sale for $20....
IR is no doubt the king, just wanted an FYI/opinion so I could decide if I should keep it 9how can you go wrong for $20) or immediatly return it for ?
Thanks,
Jeff

While it doesn't have enough torque to bust the lug nuts loose (100 lbs tq setting on lugs)..
for $20 you can't really go wrong because I break the lugs loose by hand & use the gun essentially as a star wrench to remove and then re-install the lugs- then torque down the rest of the way.
For a real tq wrench, yes, go with IR.
