You should sell or donate those tools to someone who will use them. An impact wrench is fine for loosening and removing stubborn wheel lugs on a car/truck but is not recommended for putting the lugs back on unless you are really careful and have a means to set it's torque. Common problems are inadvertently cross threading the lug on the stud and over-torquing the lug that can result in a warped rotor. |

Common problems are inadvertently cross threading the lug on the stud and over-torquing the lug that can result in a warped rotor. Whenever I have tire work done, on the truck or the trailer, I ask them to adjust the torque on the impact wrenches. It's not a problem, but the mechanics don't seem to think about it. More is better seems to be their belief. |

That's when I learned that over-torquing the lugs can warp the rotor. |
