96vteccd5 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Well fellas, since I bought a home a while ago I feel it is time to get an air compressor and air gun to make my life easier and garage happy. Just wondering what you guys would recommend. Of course it would be used from wheels to taking about suspension to anything else I can think of. Getting a little tired of using hand tools in crazy spots and ripping my hands apart. Looking at $200 - $300 for the compressor. Looking for something quite also. Haven't thought about the gun.

These were my 2 options so far: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=yes&tool=power&item_ID=89671&group_ID=24645&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog or maybe this one http://www.amazon.com/Bare-Tool-Milwaukee-2662-20-18-Volt-Battery/dp/B002AKKJAY/ref=pd_cp_hi_pw_1 and since I am using this at home only I was even thinking about: http://www.lowes.com/pd_28180-11241-6904_0__?productId=3307992&Ntt=impact+wrench&pl=1¤tURL=%2Fpl__0__s%3FNtt%3Dimpact%2Bwrench&facetInfo= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's awesome, does everything I need it to do, very durable and well made(just like most DeWalt tools). It has tackled everything from lug nuts, to rusty brake caliper bracket bolts, trailer hitch mounting bolts, to truck bed mounting bolts......

idahoBLKss Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 i always liked dewalt tools but recently went to a home depot or lowes cant remember what one but the sales guy said dewalt was bought out by black and decker and that the quality of dewalt went down the toilet , dont know how true this is but will be sad if it is true . i really like that stuff.
