Mate, long time follower, really enjoying your videos. I've been meaning to ask: Do you mainly use 3/8" socket tools for low to mid torqued fasteners? My collection is of 1/2" sockets and have more often than not found it to be too big for many confined spaces. I do have a small number of 1/4" sockets, however I do not trust them with attacking stubborn bolts. Also,what are the specs of this battery operated impact wrench you are using? I am considering the purchase of one to tackle suspension and chassis related work, however I do not know what sort of max (breakaway) torque I should go for and potentially what features I may need. Any help would be appreciated. Btw I too am working on French cars.
Hi Harry Yes 3/8" sockets are for low/mid torque fasteners. A 3/8 set is a very handy set to have when working on the car, without really thinking i would reach more times for a 3/8 socket than a 1/4 or 1/2. 1/4 is invaluable on the interior of the car or where access is very limited, but you can damage the tool when using it on very tight bolts. 1/2 is great for wheel bolts, engine mounts, suspension parts or anything needing a good amount of strength. 1" drive sockets also exist but they would see more use around lorries/trucks and tractors. Im using a Milwaukee M18 Fuel 1/2" impact wrench, it came with 2 5AH batteries - Search milwaukee 2763-22. Its one of the best preforming impact wrenches available and as i already had a milwaukee drill and work used these impact wrenches the choice was easier. Just be sure to register it for the 3 year warranty as like any brushless cordless tool there is plenty of electronics in the tool to potentially go wrong.
You've just saved me a hundred quid. Thank you and happy new year from Ireland 💚

Hello! Are you using the same jacking points for a lift as if for factory boot jack?
I think so, just where the arrows on the sills point to.
@@peugeotCitroen2CV Thanks! I'll try not to break them.
