Review: Better than standard impacts, due to size - I had to do suspension work on my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L pickup. This made mincemeat of the work I had to do. My 13, 11, and 7 year olds used this!!! (Granted, they had supervision and guidance from dear old Dad. Hey, I'm getting wore out; I have to pass this on to my kids!!! :-D I did one side in 3-4 hours: upper control arm, lower control arm balljoint, tierod end, and shock absorber, which included removing the axle hub nut. This tool did it all. I had a CH impact wrench some time ago that was useful for lugnuts and maybe the lower bolt for the shocks. This tool was compact, powerful, and had enough weight to not destroy your hand. The only complaint, a minor one, is the packaging it came in was poor, a mere cloth bag, which in hindsight, explains the low cost of the tool. I don't care about that LOL EXCELLENT tool!!!
Review: Perfect for the money to use in a professional environment! - Dealer tech here, as far as stubby impacts go, for the money this one will keep up with matco/mac/snapon all day at a fraction of the cost. Perfect size when space to work is a factor. Aircat provides a 2 year warranty and with the availability of rebuild kits this should last you for many years. The selector for on and off can be moved to the other side which is nice for you south-paws. Get a hi-flow swivel quick connect and you can work in even smaller places. Definitely would purchase this again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aircat Vs harbor freight earthquake
*by W***S on December 26, 2018*

So I bought this for my father as a Christmas gift. I own a harbor freight earthquake extreme stubby impact wrench that claims to be rated for something like 750 ft/lbs of breaking loose power. So when my dads aircat came in, we decided to compare the two. So I used his aircat to first break some lug nuts loose. It worked like a charm. Then I tightened the lug nuts back up with his aircat. Then I used a breaker bar to tighten the lug nuts down more. I could barely tighten them any more after using the aircat because it put them on so tight. So the I put the earthquake impact on the same set of lug nuts, and it really struggled to even break the bolts lose behind the aircat. The aircat would break the bolts lose that my earthquake put on, but the earthquake would not break lose the bolts that the aircat put on. Aside from that, the aircat is a little heavier, and feels very well built. It is a little bit longer than other stubby impacts. But only like a half inch or so. Probably not enough to matter. Plus it’s much more powerful that other stubby impacts. If I buy another stubby impact, it will definitely be this aircat.
