- Still see slot of people asking how well this tool works on caliper bolts. Here it's is on the rear caliper bracket bolts on a 2013 f150 with 98k miles.

Pheww was getting worried for a sec
Bro you ain't lying 😂
Seriously I thought it was about to bang his hand against the frame 🤣
I've just bought one of these and I was touching cloth thinking it wouldn't work😬
Should be that's around max 140 foot pounds or someone over torqued the bolt.
@@EMShorts8 whats this impact good for, 150 ft lbs?
I’m holding out to get the Milwaukee left angle impact.
What about the acute and obtuse models?
left angle is only for left handy people
😂
Nah, the upside down model coming out this month is the one you really want
I just hate that you have to have both models to either loosen or tighten
We have a bunch of these at work, they're amazing.
To all the people saying to use a regular ratchet, you can break some bolts if you don't impact them off. And when time is money, this tool makes bank.
Usually that's the idea of right angles isn't it it's more to rapidly run bolts to save a lot of time.
Every 20 minute job is 1 broken bolt away from becoming a 4 hour ordeal.
You can break some bolts if you dont impact them off..sure
For car repairs, I still prefer air tools over battery tools.
@@Plumber1111 do you work in an automotive shop?
If you use a heavier socket(like a deep impact socket or even a different brand with thicker wall and more mass) you will see NOTICEABLE difference in torque output.
I have a set of heavy ass sockets and my coworkers are always confused as to why my impact can always take off what their can’t🤣
@@yeahbuddy8D harbor freight, just means more weight
How does that work? Does it just transfer more of the torque?
@@DaDaDo661 I believe it would give it more of an impact be ause of the higher mass
@@mynamesnotimportant6941 ah ok like a heavier bullet hits harder
There's a lot of commentary that this tool isn't powerful enough. Anyone that has ever tried to remove caliper bolts without a lift knows how difficult and often impossible it can be to get the leverage necessary to remove them. I'm impressed with this and will be adding it to my tools real soon!
Wot r u smoking
@@EFLO3D Go away
True plus the fact that Chevy uses strong locktite on them. I always break them loose with a breaker bar.
These people saying it’s not powerful don’t know what they’re talking about. I use this thing every day for suspension work and it’s great when used as intended. Know your tools capabilities.
Yea....to the haters around here....ejecto seato
Same
I don't know why people trip out.... get the 3/8 ratcheting one. Use it to break it free. Then use the electric portion to zip it out.
It’s a fucking impact u paid for a right angle impact exactly meant for these kinds spaces it’s very under powered as u can see why waste time tryna break it loose when u paid for a impact wrench
@@jonnnn4895 idk man Ive never been impressed with cordless or air power angle impacts. Id rather have 1/2 cordless ratchet over this this thing to be honest.
I’m surprised it broke it loose. The locktite Chevy uses is extremely strong. My air gun struggles with them. I always break it loose with a breaker bar and drive it off with the 90. I’ve occasionally had to use a torch to burn off the thread locker.
@@hanotme.1085 I've got the 3/8th & 1/2 impacts both but I got this right angle impact as well for tight spots where the regular impacts doesn't fit. It's got 220ftlb of break away power. Used it the other day changing some leaf spring shackles out cause my other impacts wouldn't fit. Worked great. Got the 3/8th long reach ratchet as well for the smaller stuff
Yeah you’ll break the head on that cute 3/8ths ratchet doing things like that.... ask me how I know 🥸
I think I’ll wait till the left angle comes out. 🤣
😂
Thats the version we get here in the southern hemisphere, buy the export model
😂
Thats valid
It will soon come out, i think 2025
On Technicians will understand the impressiveness of what we just witnessed!!!! 🤩
I can't believe it did it. That's a level 7 grunt bolt
Try a bigger/thicker socket to transfer more torque! Also use it like a normal ratchet to break it free will help it out.
It’s… it’s an impact. This is not a ratchet and I have no idea why people keep thinking ratchets are impacts and impacts are ratchets
I like my 3/8ths drive one cuz you can use it like a normal ratchet to break the bolt loose then zip it out the rest of the way with the motor, it definitely can't break bolts like this with the motor alone but it's still one usefull ass tool lol
You have the ratchet this is an impact wrench huge difference
@@jamesfair9751 he’s aware but thanks for inserting your useless information
Bet the M12 stubby would fit in there too, I love my stubby..
And still wouldn't do jack shir
@@FusionBoost2.0 it would easily take out caliper bolts lol
@@bendude6748 it doesn't but thanks for playing lol I have the stubby, it's gutless in the rust belt
@@FusionBoost2.0 well I don’t live in America so idk lol
@@bendude6748 neither do I lol The great Canadian salt belt here
Glad to see people actually using a tool for what it’s made to do
From my experience. After 2 weeks the battery shakes loose and the impact is useless unless you push in on the battery while in use. Had this happen with all the 12 v stuff that vibrates and Milwaukee drills. Reminds me of the first generation snap on stuff..
That’s exactly what I bought mine for! I don’t get why some mechanics say it’s useless. Works for me!
Well with a wobbly adapter you could probably get a standard impact to work I'm a wobble socket master!!
i got the Kobalt right angle the big boy and its the best shiet ever.. worth the penny
How is it holding up 11 months later???? Been wanting a long term mechanics review of it
If you have thick nice impact sockets the shock force is better too. Some people lose all their breaking torque through cheap thin sockets. Just a tip. 👍
I got to say it’s better than my snap on one 😬😂
I can't believe it did it. That's a level 7 grunt bolt
I have an impact and I run it for two seconds on rusty bolts, if it don't come out then I move to the breaker bar.
Otherwise you'll round out the bolt head
yeah...duhhh
The fook are you talking about?? Use a 6 point socket you dingus can't round it off then 😂😂
@@samthesr20man he’s using a 6 point, just the wrong size lol
SOLD! Christ Almighty! If those were as tight as my rear bracket bolts on my car that took me 2 days to remove that included a small torch and a now ruined long handle torque wrench (settle down it was a crappy Husky and I needed the leverage). My forearms are still bruised. It was July. 8 months ago! Man I hate those fasteners. Especially when they’re literally fused and even more especially on a ‘16 Sonata. Luckily it’s a mechanical E-Brake not them fancy Electronic ones. Book says it’s a 4 hour job instead of the normal 1.5. So for me it would have turned a 2 day job into 6? Well, not anymore. Now that I’ve seen this beast. I love Milwaukee’s M12 tools. My M12 Stubby impact sometimes just can’t quite fit. Problem solved!
I bought the M12 stubby in 3/8 drive, I like it, but I don't believe it's nearly as powerful as claimed to be. Wouldn't even take caliper bracket bolts off a fiesta...
Return it are you running the 3.0 battery if yes than return it and let them know it’s defective mine breaks them off semi trucks on a 6.0 battery
Love this tool cant wait until I order one.
These Milwaukees are the bee's knees!
And love to rattle the batteries loose
@@b_141.s8 yeah m12 is shitty compared to m18 for that reason alone
People are going crazy over torquing bolts, just did a brake job on 2013 Infinity G37x n two out of four front caliper bolts were destroyed by probably some ass with an air gun. Cost me 2 days waiting on bolt extractors bcuz I am rebuilding my tools that I gave up when my wife was ill n I needed cash.
It's an impact driver but right angle. The only reason why I wouldn't recommend just using an impact driver with adapters is because modern impact drivers destory everything that can fit in their jaws.
Guaranteed that was on setting 1 because I personally remove wheels with ease using that tool
Milwaukee all Flippin Day.
Wow that was amazing. I prefer it to the ratchet of which I have the 3/8 long and 1/4 standard aswell
My dad got one a smaller one for tires its fun to play with
I got one of these the other day for my service truck, did a timing belt and head gasket and it had no problem taking the crank pulley bolt out aswell as the head bolts, very impressed so far
What kind of sockets do you have?
😂 and then you ripped some semi lugs off with it 🤣
@@mike_t_007I'm not picky on the brands, I started years ago with craftsman and now I'm upgrading to mac tools and snapon, there's nothing wrong with the original tools, I just want a nicer set
@@IVlosesnah it dosent have the juice for that, I guess you could say I've been lucky with it so far, today I used it all day out in the rain and it still works fine, I'm still impressed with it regardless, it fits where regular impacts can't
@austinkreller4336 Love it!
I had a Dewalt DCF850 I modified with a 3/8" anvil. Just sold it recently for a great price on FB marketplace but let me tell you...if you can't get a right angle...it's the next best thing. It was so tiny and could fit just about anywhere and it had power too. You guys would love it!
I may make another one again soon. In the meantime, I want to try one of these right angles out as well to see how they perform on some projects I've got coming up
Satisfying af
What you should do so u don’t burn the motor is give it a couple cranks then turn the motor
Brushless. Won't burn.
Damn, could have used one of those when we did my cousin's calipers today!
the new high output batteries make that tool come alive
I used my M12 stubby the other day with a 4ah battery. Couldn't break free 80 foot pounds on the front caliper bolts on my Accord. Now I'm wondering what it's really good for.
I haven't used my 4.0 in it but I was just using it on some seat bolts with a 2.0 and it wouldn't remove. Switched to a 6 and pulled it right out. Brake anchor bolts can be super tight. My high torque sometimes has to work to get them out on these trucks
@@mrbussestoolreviews4550 the 2 battery has increased resistance, the 4 half's the resistance. Not sure if there's a battery specific advantage for the 6. Maybe they're different batteries, not sure. I knew the bolts were at 80 foot pounds because I installed them, but it's been since late last year. I may end up getting a mid torque to have on hand, if there's clearance to use it. I have an electric Kobalt that'll remove dang near anything but it's huge. Good for truck suspension, about it.
@@pughconsulting I have the mid torque its my go too for lugs and caliper bolts when it fits.
i switched two front suspension A Arms and both stabilisators yesterday on an Mazda 6 with the Stubby on an 6Ah. No problem at all.
After about 50 break jobs i only had 2 calipers it would not take off. Ome on an Mercedes G Wagon one sided and another time on an VW TV Syncro that was covered in mud and rust
Mine was the same.
It’s cool for some things I just don’t see it beating 3/8 medium length handle or Milwaukee 3/8 m12 ratchet
Just crack it loose with a long wrench then use a cheap electric right angle ratchet to unthread
These right angle impacts are so gimicky
Bulky as hell
Don’t be mad just because you can’t afford it. 🤣
@@Pamalamajama materialistic much? If his method works ^ then why would he need an angle impact?
@@The_Real_JN because the impact is faster and time is money
@@CarsonRH we don't know what context he's talking about though. He may be talking about a workshop like the one in the vid or just at home for his own use
@@The_Real_JN true however I was referring to in a professional environment.
Aerokroil assistance please. I just used mine for the first time Thursday, to remove a rusted faucet. Looking forward to some more serious challenges on these chiller and heating water pumps in the near future.
My favorite tool
Probably went through the entire battery on that one bolt lol
It'd nice but a 15 dollar wobbly adapter 3 peice set would also get the job done probably just as quick
I just picked up the 3/8 brushed one yesterday thinking it was the shit, after seeing that thing now I’m looking at it like it’s a harbor freight box end wrench
They don't make a brushed right angle impact. You mean the regular 3/8 brushed impact? Either way, even the brushed milwaukee stuff is plenty for home use.
@@TheAmericanUhateI never said it was an impact ratchet and I’m a contractor not a “home use” person and I had one of the first ones Milwaukee came out with years ago and that thing lasted years, drove thousands of bolts never with any issue
@@trevorm7013 Well the video is on the 3/8 right angle impact. Your first sentence was "I just picked up the 3/8 brushed one yesterday". Your last sentence mentioned a wrench as well. So...
@@TheAmericanUhate yes but I figured most people would be smart enough to figure out what I clearly meant. I guess you just weren’t
Impressive because those gm rear caliper bolts are loctite in and are not easy to get out
Dont even have to watch the video to be amazed because i use mine for this, it's a beast lol.
Great tool but doesnt always work on rear caliper bolts. Wouldnt work on my 2015 ram 1500 caliper bolts. As i mean i have actually tried. Had to use a big ratchet/ breaker bar. Or maybe my mid torque fit i dont remember i jus remember the right angle didnt work
Dude I wish I had this when I was changing rotors
I bought one but returned it. Bought the Ridgid one.... It is way more powerful
You forgot to cuss, cussing makes the tool work faster.
if you live anywhere with rust this tool is useless. i bought one and was so excited!. wont even take off 12mm caliper pin bolts. its really probably closer to 80 ftlbs tq 100% not 250 like they claim
Great angle tool
Exactly what I want to watch.
I would hope so since my harborfreight did it even faster.
I'm not aware harbour freight makes these?
@@505fastlife6 they are around $100 I believe.
Whoever's flat rate isn't gonna waste time standing on that trigger till it breaks loose. Heard they are finally releasing an M18 Fuel model soon.
Tub-O-Towels will make that impact look new....
Pretty impressive considering these bolts are normally torqued over 100ftlbs on most cars
There's no way these bolts are normally tightened to 100 ft lbs. I torque my lugs to 90
@@hotdogy12345 Brake Caliper Bracket Bolt, Rear (JD9)
200 N·m
148 lb ft
Plus Chevy uses extremely strong thread locker
@@hotdogy12345 these are around 120ftlbs I believe but also have thread locker on them. So this tool has to work at its max.
Ive started breaking them loose with a ratchet then using this to run them out.
I wonder if he knows the 4th mode is the strongest mode to take bolts out but only tightens to 10ft lbs I think
Christ almighty is that a sledge hammer with a socket on the end I see?
Great tool! I have one!
That's a left handed wrench, so it's a left angle. 😋😂
There are many things wrong with this comment but okay
@@fredsansoucie644 Grab a dictionary, or even Google, 'humour'. 😉
@@SqueekyBums It's hard to tell sarcasm in this comment, it's sad that people would actually be serious though😂
I feel like this is underpowered but the kobalt one have hella power it’s rated at only 180ft pound but tested at 300 ft pound of course you should never really use it to break of something that tight but it’s very impressive it would have been very helpful for when i had to remove me down pipe bolts and had to do some acrobatic moves to fit my impact behind it
i hazzzz dee kobalt!!!
its very nice and better bang than the milwaukee. i can see why people would pick milwaukee but im not a full time mechanic, just a weekend warrior so the kobalt made more sense.
@@ayowheredeeway yea I get that how do you like the kobalt
@@naratouzumaki personally, i love it. it is more than enough for what i need. im not a pro so it has enough power for my projects.
Just get a regular electric ratchet and break it free manually and then use the electric motor to get it all the way out.
Mid length socket would’ve token it out or the 1/2
The fact that it comes in 1/2" anvil is all you need to know
I think I need a bigger battery for mine I only have the really small ones and that thing is gutless can’t remove 75 percent of caliper bracket bolts and never on trucks
Nice tool👍
Is that what it looks like when you use the right socket?
Need some astro nano sockets so it fits everywhere 😏
Ah I just did brakes on my truck used a kobalt 1/4 impact and it didn't struggle this much
Kobalt is 24v?
personally i prefer using just a breaker bar. this sounds like a great way to strip the bolt.
Exactly. Or worse strip the wratchit
@@TudorSI00 and if tightened too quickly can crossthread
Strip the bolt? LOL. No. Won't strip the threads nor the head if you use the right sized socket. You sound like you're not familiar with doing this kind of work, but you're actually more liable to strip the head with a breaker bar because you're creating lateral forces in addition to rotational torque.
@@xenonram well i am familiar with using right size bolts. but often times the bolt is softer than the socket. if the bolt is tight and too soft compared to socket, bolt will still strip. happens to car lug nuts all the time.
@@asadb1990 what are you talking about, I have literally never stripped or rounded a bolt because it's too tight if I'm using the proper tools. Dont use 12 point sockets and you won't have that issue. What I have done is completely twist off the heads of bolts but that has nothing to do with this tool
Man, I could get that thing stuck in so many places. lol
Actually caliper bracket bolts which are torqued much more than caliper bolts !
Use a bigger socket to have a higher impact force
I'm holding out on the Rigid version
A tool that big should be 18v right?
Looks like operator tried to make it the Bolt Rounder 2000
Reasons I avoid shops as much as possible. Just love getting my bolts rounded.
The XC battery is weak use the high demand battery
damn, i think i need one now.
Would’ve taken half that time to just throw a power ratchet on there, break it free, and then zip it out. But if you like wasting time then sure, a right angle impact makes sense.
Well we can be sure that bolt was no more than 215ftlbs lol.. I love my m12s but sometimes they're just not the correct tool. I still wouldn't have been mad at mine had it of failed this particular "test" lol
next investment
I like the tool but it’s way too bulky head I think.
I think the same way. And I can think of better situations of when to use extensions and swivels with the swivel. But to each their own
Without the bulky head, the internal hammer would be pathetic and pointless. You either want it to actually work, or be small…. Pick
@@HumbertoYi0878 but like I said might as well use some swivels and extensions with an impact.
I use it a lot but I wish it was a bit smaller but I know why it is the size it is.
all I use now. don't see a use for my regular 3/8 ratchet 🤣
It's having a hard time for that little caliper bolt, 3 more bolt to go.
I want millwaukee to make a linear impact
Works for automotive but can hardly use for equipment and for semis
* I own one ☝️
Thought he was fixing to have to hit it with his purse
Put the HO battery on that thing
That save a busted knuckle
God made muscle in man.
But man made jello, by always finding a easy way.
Used up that lil ass battery on one bolt
Why do you got to be so torquey? 👍
Try using the right size next time it was slandered not metric
Love it
Use it like a regular wrench or breaker bar to break free then hit the button.
Your thinking of the cordless Ratchet. This is an impact wrench, you can't use it like a normal wrench.
Looks looks like it barely did it. I’ve got a right angle air that I gave up using it on caliper hangers. The time you waste rattling on it you could’ve broke them all free by hand and then used a cordless or air ratchet or if you’ve got the room good old 1/2” impact with a swivel
Literally took around 8 seconds.. and didn't cause him to get arthritis or bust his knuckles. And MAYBE took 2 more seconds than to use a ratchet..
You need heavier sockets but yea mine works wonders
run a high output 5ah it will rip way harder
Impressive. Those bolts can be rusted on bad.
Where do I get the adapter for the battery
I just grab my big ole Matco 1/2 inch infinium impact. No point in sitting there twiddling thumbs
