nice, i find it really interesting when people actually do a real world review, not some bs promotional video.
Thank you for the awesome video sir. I bought the 3/4 drive and couldn't be happier. Peforms really well. I'm using with 12ah battery. Hammers for no more than 3-5 seconds on each lugnut on my semi. Love it!!!
mind if i ask exact model?
Rims are so much better now. We used to work on split rims all the time. Always scary. Great review!!
Yeah container tires are no fun. I'm sure you remember "bud studs" also.
Tell me about it, I still have 3 piece widowmakers on my 1967 GM TDH-4519 city transit bus that I live in full-time and they scare the hell out of me, but I can't afford to swap them out for 24.5 rims right now
3/4 looks to be a little quicker and makes the torque come up a bit higher. But the 1/2 still is not too bad for the Avg. Job.
I personally think the 1/2” Milwaukee impact wrench is the best deal because most of us use 1/2” sockets. The 3/4” Milwaukee is only like 100 ft lbs of a difference. My 1/2” Milwaukee is said to have 1400 ft lbs of torque in reverse. So again, 100 ft lbs won’t really make much of a difference, especially when removing semi truck lug nuts torqued at 475 ft lbs or over-torqued to 800 ft lbs.
I am using a “high output” 12.0 battery pack and fully charged with no socket adapters and a 1/2” drive 33mm socket. It breaks loose all nuts. The 12.0 “high output” battery is expensive, about $200. You should be able to have similar results with an 8.0 or 9.0 “high output” battery. Surprisingly, removing 40 semi lug nuts doesn’t really reduce the battery level on a 12.0 battery. Yeah, it was an overkill on my part.
Perhaps the only time you would need the 1-inch Milwaukee is for driveline yoke nuts, some of which can be torqued to 1,000 ft lbs, although most are probably around 700 ft lbs. The newest model of the 1-inch Milwaukee can do 2,000 ft lbs in reverse.
a practical man!
Good to see someone who knows how to use the tools they're comparing and understands adapters lose a little torque AND real world applications 👍👍
Yeah I was wondering about that is every time you put it on a adapter you must lose some torque due to friction maybe
Thanks for the video of my brother. For some reason you just seem like a chill dude lol. Rock on
I just bought a half inch drive Milwaukee impact. And I have seen a lot of times when I was trucking that I wished I would’ve had one. You can’t go wrong with either one. I appreciate this guys help. Great video.
I bought the 3/4".and ordered a adapter reducer to 1/2".
I didint need 3/4".but since it performs better I odeered it
Was only here for the 3/4 review! Ended up watching you finding and patching that leak on the tyre!
Great video bro!
Thanks for the update I want to get it for my cousin's birthday he works with tires and dragging his compressor everywhere this would really help him out . For regular cars , pick up trucks either one would be good for him . I subscribed to the channel because you gave me the best info anyone can get really appreciate it , after his birthday on the 1st I'll tell him about your channel on what this Milwaukee is able to do 👍👍👍
Good video. I set my 2864 up through the one key app. I set it up for 550, 950, 1350, and 1750 RPM and disabled that bolt removal mode completely. I find the bolt removal mode pointless when you have a variable speed trigger. Great tool, but I don’t like the factory settings.
Great review both impacts are great but a bigger anvil does make a difference. You should look into buying bigger batteries like the 8 amp & 12 amp longer battery life but I have seen that it does help to fastened & remove lug nuts faster & it sounds more stronger with bigger batteries. Would like to see the review but great video keep it up man😎👍🏾
2 tips. 1. shove the hole reamer into the tire while it still has air in it to know the direction and location of the hole. 2.a used tire like yours would seat if you put a 5 gallon pail in the center and let the tire hang off the ground while you seat the bead, it also helps center the tire on the wheel.
Why use a five gallon bucket when you could just set the wheel on its face? Its a 2 piece
I just got the 3/4 drive for taking hydraulic rams apart . 1 13/16 nuts off and it works when all my 3/4 air wont touch. I am impressed with Milwaukee 3/4 drive
I just bought the 1 inch d handle and it awesome man
Can't seem to get the extended anvil anywhere right now so I'm holding out.
Be careful seating the bead of the ground like that. I would put if on the trailer. I always did it with no problem until one exploded on me. I used far less starting fluid then you did when it exploded.
been getting by with a dewalt like the one you had to change tires on my semi gonna look for a 3/4 milwaukee thanks for the review
Nothing wrong with the dewalt but it just isn't as strong as the milwaukee. I feel I got my money out of it before it died though 😃 I really never intended to use it for semi lugs when I bought it but you know how that goes LOL. I think this milwaukee 3/4" may be the ticket, it's stronger than the snap on mg 1200 air impact I had also.
That adapter might even be helping the 1/2. There’s some controversy because of the torque test channel. The added mass from the adapter might overcome any loss in torque from using it and then some. Same idea as to use a deep well socket to hit harder.
Also you’ll hit harder with the 6.0 battery. Different battery tech.
Thanks bro, I need that 3/4 inch for my 1967 GM TDH-4519 city transit bus that I live in full-time. You earned my subscription. Keep up the good work and stay safe and God bless you and your family
Awesome video brother 👍 the first video that actually shows the real world power of these tools I believe if you didn't have that addapter you would see a little more power out of the half inch. But the 3 quarter inch is faster with the rpm difference and will suit your needs better. I advise you to get the rubber boot it saves your impact if you don't care about denting it and scratches but I have both and have the rubber boot on all my Milwaukee tools that have the option. But they work great and seriously protect your investment these things are not cheep and I believe you would really like it. With that said keep them coming love all your content
Ive had the 1/2" for years and its amazing. I work on a lot of 38 and 50 liter cummins engines and the 1/2" struggles to take the head bolts off, and when it comes to the main cap bolts, that gun won't even budge one of those bolts (they're 1 1/2" bolt heads torqued on to about 600 ft lbs). Im currently overhauling 2 38 liters right now and my coworker bought the 3/4" gun to try a wack at the main bearings, and I shit talked him quite a bit saying that its just the 1/2" gun with a 3/4" anvil....well holy shit did I eat my words. That freaking gun blew that main cap bolt off with NO PROBLEM. I dont't know if the internals are the same or different, or if you just get that much extra torque from the bigger anvil. But my freaking god I never went on the home depot website so fast to buy something. My other coworker had bought the milwaukee 1" impact to do this job for like 900 bucks, and HE WAS PISSED. And to top that off, when going back together, the torque for the main caps are a torque angle torque, and the freaking gun had no problem doing the 90* turn! That 3/4" gun is a freaking beast.
Yeah someone told me that the 3/4 had more balls than the 1/2 and I thought they were bullshittin too.
Then I bought a 3/4 and wow did it really impress me. And also like you said not sure if they have different internals or it’s the anvil that makes the difference
There are 2 or 3 versions of the 1/2 inch, the 2767 is the strongest, i removed the head of a Cummins isx 15 without a problem
Good honest review , I’ve also got the 3/4 and it’s a rockstar as a welder/fabricator it saves me from packing the air .
@@bigboreracing356 really? Did you wake up right after or when did this fairytale happen......
Thank you bro! This is the info I needed! I just picked up the 1/2! I’m excited
The 3/4” is a workhorse for medium and heavy duty suspension work. The 1/2” will do it but if you have to throw an adapter on it you lose a little bit of torque. But the 3/4” will yank lug nuts most of the time
I picked up the Proto J199WP and that gun is a total beast
Great video thanks buddy. Would be nice to see the same head to head test but without an adapter on the 1/2”. I have been told when you use an adapter that it sacrifices torque. Like you said both are great impacts and the 3/4” hits a bit harder.
Hey bud i kinda fast forwarded a bit so forgive me if im wrong, idk if u know it or not yet but u can set the 3/4 impact to the max foot torque breaking power but only through the app. Same goes for tightening. Ik this vid is 2 years old also but i figured i would tell u anyways ..u can set 4 settings and disable the tool as well. Its an awesome tool and awesome features
Try the bigger High Output batteries. I would like to see the comparison
Deffinately make amazing difference with the impacts. More torque and longer run times.
Nice comparison. I'd bet the adapter is killing the 1/2" performance though.
A real world test. Good job. ✅✅.
AWESOME 1/2 2767 I just ordered one on EBAY used for a low price.
Still pretty still impressive for having a adapter.
Honestly incredibly powerful the 1/2 impact wrench he's using is amazing and not using an adapter is really impressive, super nice to have when you only use 1/2" impact sockets and work on trailers a lot
"As you can see I haven't used this one" beats it against trailer to get socket on lol. Awesome
Im getting the 3/4 inch. Not going to bother with a 1/2 inch and an adapter. Thank you sir for the content.
Man you need the protective covers for those tools. They are about $44 but they protect the serial number of the tool so you can get it repaired by Milwaukee with the warranty. That number will wear off and they won't help you if the number is damaged.
I usually don't worry about that, if it breaks I'll buy another and if it breaks sooner than I think it should I'll buy another brand.🙂 Dealing with warranty is usually a pain in the but on small items. If I have to spend hrs on the phone and look through receipts to find proof of purchase then pay shipping it's usually not worth it...
jersey discount tool company offers a boot for the tool and batteries. Also they offer a strap to prevent wear to the battery to tool contacts.
July 2021 I browser-searched the price of the 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch Milwaukee cordless impacts and there is a $150.00 sales price difference. In both kits used for comparison came with two batteries and a charger.
Even ask cash-starved is a chronically am I guess the feeling of a 3/4 in sockets above 15/16 of an inch hacks does feel good in the palms whethet pneumatic or breaker bar so I imagine this would be the same with cordless.
I am shocked how both guns can do so much especially the half inch.
Why do you use 2 bars to put the tire back on? It is much easier and safer to use one. After prying the bar over put your foot where it is make a circle with the bar clockwise on the left, or counter clockwise on the right. On the last pry keep one foot in the rim and step the other one forward. This is so you can use your weight to pry it on, and so you have a lower chance to fall on your face if it pops on before you expect it to. Not saying your way is wrong, just giving you some tips.
Hi, ty so much for your hands on demonstration very interesting and helpful I like the 3/4 drive impact from Milwaukee, ty so much,
Looks like a great choice of impact for working on trucks.
Time will tell but so far I like it and think it's gonna do well!
I like to plug it trimming and then patch it on the inside that way it preserves the core from elements and prevents rusting of the steel banding in the tire then you can recap no problem
"You can secure it so it won't work" (opens drill and pulls out one key board)
"I'm sorry, continue."
Great video can’t stand seeing all these Nancy’s making videos when they have no place even owning one. I’m looking into getting the 3/4 or the 1”
@@bigboreracing356 what kind of impact do you have?
@@stankjaws7023 ma
Recently another channel compared the gem 2 3/8 and 1/2 finding they have the same strength.
Great video! 👏👏👏
You got that tire on the rim looking easy but I'm sure that's more from you making it look easy then it actually being that easy
Ordered. Been debating thanks to this video i know i want it.
Great test! Thank you!
Just get a size 33 socket in the 1/2in and lose the adaptor
Good morning. I find the comparison between the two impact wrenches informative. What is a drop socket. Thanks in advance
Thanks for the review, you are great!
Bro that thing is a beast.
I use 9 Amp hour battery or even my 12 amp hour battery is gives you 25 % performance well worth the extra cost.
Great Video , Thanks For Sharing !
Hard work. Great review. Respect.
Fantastic video!! Thank you!
Told you they come in threes.. But look on the bright side, your home to fix them. Not stuck on the road where a service call would cost you an arm and leg.
yep, I would have spent double what I made paying for service calls if I was on the side of the road here lately.
Great test!
Thank you I'm in the market for an impact wrench and I'm wondering which one's the best, I might buy the three-quarter I need to get lug nuts off my truck and who knows what else I might come across and need it... But the half-inch looks pretty good too thank you for the info
Great video my friend, do you think that the 1/2 in would work on the trailer shocks? Is a semi trailer, 53’. They are tight. Thanks, be safe and I’ll see you over the road, blessings
Would probably mostly depend on how rusty or how much corrosion they have, and you can't use an extension cause you lose torque. I've taken off shock bolts before but they weren't rusty or anything.
THANKS BUDDY..APPRECIATE THE VIDEO
You are a real man.
Perfect review thanks
My only question is, is that I am absolutely sure there are torque specs for those lug nuts. I am sure that both of them over torque.. what is the torque max out for each.
Drill- Packedge in typical box, came with a tool bag (added bonus), two batteries, one charger, drill, and driver. Two words "plenty of Torque" th-cam.com/users/postUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv well I guess that's three. Nice upgrade from current setup. Has belt clips, I don't think I will be using those. Driver and drill were bigger than what I expected but it is an upgrade from the current setup. For the money I would say that this is a great setup for Professionals and DIY/Weekend warriors.
Nice video explaining alot thank you.
Like a boss!!!! Great job!!
Great video
Take into account that adapters reduces power
It's nice to have the one key because you can track it and hunt down that scum bag that's stole it
Great great video
Great vid.
Never fails at least to lugs fell off in the leaves,some days those would be lost for ever 🤣✌️😝
That means if I have ½ socket I would need to get a new set of ¾ of I go with the 3864...
Sockets larger than 1/2” get very expensive very quick. Make sure you absolutely need them before committing to buy them so you don’t waste your money.
Hey Jack. I’m ready for some Cajun food but I’m afraid you’ll put me on flat duty if I drive down there.
haha, I think I might have fixed more flats than hauled loads here lately LOL
If that’s not the the case then you’ve hauled a many a load. 😂
What were the lug nuts torqued to before removal???
I'll stay with my 1/2 inch high-torque until it shits itself.
Only then,will I upgrade to a 3/4 inch.
I just got them as a combo at HD for $399.99 I would say I’m pretty happy with that purchase, it it a nice deal .
Right now 359.99. you can probably get your 40 back if you contact customer service
But 399 is still a good deal
Nice !
Good video
thanks, do you have an update??
Amazing 🤩 video
So, if you had to pick one M18 impact, and both were the One Key (1/2 and 3/4 models) which one would you take if both were offered at the same price? Is it worth getting a 3/4 impact and using an adapter on 1/2 socket sets? It is evident that the 3/4 is somewhat more powerful than the 2863 1/2 One Key.
If my main use was removing semi lugs and dozer tracks etc I would go 3/4 if I was mainly planning to use it for smaller stuff with the occasional semi tire I would go 1/2. I pretty much use the 3/4 for semi lugs and the 1/2 for everything else...
thank you very much for showing me how bloody work it is.... im thinking to revert myself from IT to mechanic bcs of humunguous amount of stress at work - thank you very much - btw i like your - no offense - heavy texas dialect which occasionaly made me laughing as hell hehehe.... good luck
Will the 3/4 torque to lug nut spec in the forward position or no
Bro I just bought 1/3 in and after I saw your video I went back to Home Depot and exchanged 3/4 instead.
3/4 deff hits a little harder.
@@LifeWithChase I just got 3/4. Have a question. The reverse sounds slower. Is it normal. I have try it out. Just got it now.the battery is fully charged.
If you have it in setting 4 it is slower. It's a feature that it slows down when doesn't have resistance when nut breaks loose to unscrew the nut slower
You car cannot move in a really high gear from a stop. You need torque not speed. Your high speed will have way less torque
Slower means more torque. You don't need speed. If you understand how gears work you'll know that when speed goes up torque goes down and vise versa.
Wait you can make it so that it wont work if someone takes it????
Only on the models that has the one key feature like the 2864. I have never tried to use it so I don't know anything about it but supposedly you can disable it and also custom the power levels. I'm sure someone has a video on those features.
Are you using the xc5.0 battery?
Im sold on it for what i need. Which is similar to your need and from what ive heard it can do. But have you taken a torque wrench behind it to see if it meets the 550 ft lb torque requirement?
I say this because i recently bought a 1,000 ft lb kobalt impact gun and large compressor and it couldn't get the starter bolts off my 12.7 series 60 motor. I wanted to buy a 3/4 milwaukee like you got but lowes doesnt sell milwaukee only home depot. So i got the air setup instead, which didnt work $750 later. I had to just use the chrome breaker bars i had which were twisting so bad im surprised nothing broke.
If you were using an extension on the impact you lose a lot of torque because the flex in the extension absorbs the impacts from the impact wrench. check out torque test channel on youtube they do torque test on impact wrenches. I believe its over 700ft lbs if I remember correctly.
@@LifeWithChase thanks for the reply, ill check that out. I was using at least a foot of extensions because thats a large starter. None of it was impact rated. It was christmas so it really my only choice.
What do you use for socket 6 point or 12 point?
so its better to get the 3/4 size than 1/2?
If use adaptors or extensions you will lose torque.
No shit sherlock
@@brettwalkom948
It’s evidently not obvious. I eventually found out about it too as an amateur mechanic.
@@thereviewer4173 well it is and if you can't understand why you should put the tools down
@@brettwalkom948
So, when we don’t understand something, then we should just leave it alone and not try? I mean, you are free to think that way. I personally think it’s disappointing when people give up. If I had given up, I wouldn’t be where I am now. Heck, I’d still be a luggage handler at a bus transportation terminal. Now, I’m the owner of a trucking company. So, no thank you.
@@thereviewer4173 Nah I'm saying you should be smart enough to understand it in the first place.. If you're mind doesn't work that way mechanics isn't for you
Is that tyre u changed a retread looks like one
Nope, I don't run retreads, they won't hold up in the heat.
Will ¾ remove yoke nut that is 2 3/16 which is on the drive shaft?
I’ve done it with mine, although a 1” is better suited for it if you want to have a cordless. If you want air, an Aircat 1680-A and a Capri Tools 3/4” are both mean and will make short work of it.
So I bout the 1.in high output with xc8.0 and it's not taking off my 18wheeler tires. $1,000 wasted
Either you have some seriously rusted and over torqed lug nuts or something is wrong with the impact. I removed some the other day with my 3/4that was put on with 1in air impact with no problem. But if you run up north in the winter and the lugs are badly rusted it may not take em off. There was 1video I seen where the 1in wouldn't take em off and it was very corroded lugs from up north that hadn't been off in years.
Make sure you are not using any socket adapters or extensions (if possible). If you need to use an extension, use the shortest one. Get yourself a 1-inch drive 33 mm socket from Amazon.
Also, make sure you’re loosening the nut. Lefty loosey, righty tighty. It can happen to anyone. And have a freshly and fully charged battery pack, and preferably the “high output” model.
Do you tighten up on the 3th setting? Thats what 1200 flbs
Those are not real torque numbers. Go check out torque test channel where they test impact wrenches for real torque numbers
@@LifeWithChase i have and Milwaukee is pretty close with their torque ratings thats why im asking, I always do it on the second setting then hit it a little on the 3th, not bashing on the way you do it jus want to know if you haven’t had any problems so i can do it too 😂
@@magnovska9506 I use 3rd setting, 600-700ft lbs is more realistic torque.
Have you tried the torque wrench setting with the one key yet?
that feature is amazing!
Not supposed to be used instead of a torque wrench. Supposed to get you almost there and finish up with the torque wrench.
👍👍👍
I can't find sockets to fit my 1/2" don't know what's up with it husky, and duralast doesn't fit the anvel do I have to use milwaukee what do you use?
Try the Tekton.com tool site. They have impact sockets which can be bought singly, not a whole set. You can get standard or extra deep sockets up to 1 1/2inches, or 38mm in the 1/2 inch drive category.
The hog rings are really tight on new impacts and it can be a little difficult to put sockets on, if yours is new. I use Sunex sockets and haven’t had an issue. They’re high quality and affordable.
Just push hard. Any 1/2 fits. The ring is just tight the first few uses
Fucking wow 🤩 amazing trick for the tire
