Trying to pull the suspension on my car… im on a stuck bolt… my 4-5 year old craftsman impact wrench cant seem to touch it… and in its location its hard to get a breaker bar on there without using an extension, and thus limiting how much torque i can pu t on the bolt before it slips… does anybody have an impact wrench i can borrow for a couple of hours? needs to be capable of 600+ lb feet… (hoping for a 7 800) i bought a new IR titanium wrench but it isnt here yet ---

600+ft lb… is that gonna snap the bolt? I think you need to soak that ---

i just got it out… Took the caliper/rotor off to give me more access… used a breaker bar and a 4 ft pipe to get it loose, then the impact wrench took it the rest of the way out… its a grade 8 bolt, one of the only non coated bolts in the whole car, as it goes into a cast steering knuckle… teh rest of the car suspension is all alum ---

If you are at that level of torque, then try to apply some heat to it. A small bit may help. ---

Glad you got it out. You’re going to love that IR gun. Tons of power and very quiet. ---

impact gun or ratchet? No ratchet is breaking suspension bolts out.
