I can't help you , man. But here is another annoying story from the old days. "In a previous life" I spent about 15 years selling parts. This happened around?? 1980. Guy brought in an Ingersol Rand 3/4" impact that he said needed repaired. We sent it to a place in Spokane and they came back "not worth repairing." He bought a new one, and I bought the old one from him. I don't remember, but in those days it would not have been much. Maybe 20 bucks. Certainly no more
I don't remember what I did, but likely wasn't much. Probably tore it down and cleaned it good, re-lubed everything and put it back together. It's heavy. It's ugly. But GOD DAMN that wrench will and has and does remove ANYTHING I have ever asked of it, whether these here modern front hub nuts, or 2 5/16 ball hitch nuts or whatever. I have some 1/2 air hose I feed it with, and oil 'er up with ATF. I hope it never quits, 'cause I have no idea how I'd ever replace it.
