But if I didn't have onboard air, this battery-powered one would be perfect to carry around. My lug nuts are torqued to 150 ft lbs, which makes breaking 8 of them loose per wheel a pain in the ass without an impact wrench.

And, I think your Mustang lug nuts are torqued to 100 ft lbs, are they not?Last edited by jluv; 12-08-2017, 10:29 AM.

I've been using one of the Craftsman C3 impacts for a couple of years now. It's rated to 300 ft pounds which is more than enough for 99% of anything I need around the house. I know it won't do anything like setting a pinion bearing preload but it'll remove cross member bolts, lugnuts and shock mounts with ease. Comes in real handy when you need to remove seat bolts.

The last time I had to change one of my tires, I had to jump up and down on the 4-way several times to get each one to break loose. I'm 340 lbs. The 4-way bent. It was a motherfucker. Breaking out the hose and the impact takes less than a minute. Anyway, I guarantee you can't break all 8 lugs loose with a breaker before I can zap them all off with the impact wrench. Would be fun as shit to watch you try, though!
