ok, i’m not here to spam, but i bought this impact wrench a few months ago to help with taking off the wheels and such and it’s worked nicely. i paid about 250 for the impact alone, and now they have a deal with a driver, impact and light for $129

i bought this kit today because i could use another battery and the driver looks good.

I have that impact driver, hasn’t occurred to me to try it for taking off wheels but it works great for driving screws into dense wood. I bought it at Home Depot on Black Friday last year.
Impact drivers are generally not that great for any work involving the removal of bolts as you have to buy adaptors to convert the 1/4 inch quick release chuck to a 1/4 3/8 or 1/2 square drive, and the use of the adaptor takes away some of the impact action, impact wrenches are a whole different story and are designed to remove nuts and bolts rather than driving in screws using 1/4 inch screwdriver bits which is what an impact driver is designed for, however, you can use an impact wrench to drive in screws no problem! I have the Ryobi One+ 18V impact wrench which is really good and definatley makes work easier, I am going to get a LiOn upgrade kit for it soon.
