Can you remove truck lugnuts with a cordless impact wrench?

In: Cars & Vehicles [Edit categories]

Answer:

Be careful using a handheld power drill with lug nuts. They don't turn easily, and the shock can transmitted to your hand. Especially if you put them on with a drill, when they bottom the drill can hurt you. Best to have a drill with a clutch on it, and to set it for light. But this wouldn't help you take them off.
You can get a lot of torque safely by using a large x=shape lug wrench.
