Those with our lifetime of rankings would see this new category & results sneakily appear earlier this week! etsy.me/3G8j3QK See how they were made, parts numbers & more by visiting these great channels Philly Fixed: y2u.be/z3eZ40R3XYI Man Caver Tools: y2u.be/mAD8Uh1TTMc

Going to have to split the impacts into two categories now; stock and warranty voided (or extra spicy).

This new MOD list is going to get a lot of action. This is going to be FUN!

All of these are complete abominations and I am totally here for it.

I love the disparity between these and the nitro 2 stroke impact. Exploring both ends of the spectrum I love it ❤️

I did the mod on the 850, and it is outstanding. 100% worth it

As soon as you said there was a mystery tool I knew it must be John’s custom Kobalt. So glad you finally got around to testing it!

Once again great video TTC. Loved seeing that XTR

All you modders, FANTASTIC work! Thank you for the video, very fun watching!

Thanks fellas! Nice to see guys out there modding these tools and TTC testing them.

Watching these videos make me think the Gen3 is going to go down in history as one of the best ever tools Milwaukee has made

I have a gen 3 Frankenstein I built, I'm a heavy truck technician by trade, a half inch snap on air impact wouldn't remove maxxforce 13 head bolts and the gen 3 Frankenstein blasted all of them out with ease with a xc5.0 battery

I modded my older DCF 886 into a 3/8 wrench. It successfully removed proper 80 ft/lb lug nuts and loosened rusty brake fittings.

I appreciate how thorough and scientific you are in testing.

I guess it should be no surprise to me that people modify off the shelf impact wrenches since I modify chainsaws and vehicles. But, I never would have thought about doing this.

Would love to see this on the 12v models. The latest m12 impact driver, modded with 3/8 anvil swap. We want the smallest tool, made into a wrench

Idk I find myself grabbing that rigid sub compact more often than even my 1/2in big guns and it always impresses me. She's a mean little bugger for the size.

I definitely think the OEM could learn a lot from these. Love the video's. 👍

It's so small - she said But so powerful - he said

i have a Ridgid SubCompact 3/8 drive impact. I love it, it does everything i ask. I did an entire engine replacement on an X3 B58 engine with it. Subframe bolts, suspension bolts, flywheel and torque converter bolts, etc. Only thing it obviously couldnt handle were the axle bolts. Been contemplating getting the 1/2 inch version as well

The M12 stubby is just the sweet spot for these compact impact wrenches, I just wish they weren't so wildly overpriced. $199 for a tiny 12 volt impact is bonkers. I could see $149 max.

This is really fun! Great testing on modded tools.

Love to see you guys finally showing some kobalt love. That 24v line is INSANE

This video is gonna be a good leadup to the new Kobalt mid torque conquering that category.

Love the video as usual. You know what's weird though? I have watched every single video of yours and know what would be the best bang for buck wrenches to grab but I bought all Ryobi just because of the way they to the battery like a magazine rather than a slide in haha.

This channel is sooo awesome. I just bought the Gen 4 Milwaukee, and was pumping my fist as if my Team just won a Football game, when the Gen 4 came out on top. My Gen 4 is non converted, so it doesn’t even count in this ranking 😅😂😂😂, so makes no sense for me to be hype but I was 😂🤣😂🤣. Great work guys, luv it.

I appreciate shouting out other tool channels worth checking out, so many are just advertising for companies with more steps.

Really makes the Dewalt DCF 921 look like the king to me.It beats all of these and only 1/2 inch longer.

Hi, my 850 is off the hook with performance especially for kitchen cabinets excellent for tight spaces, I have my 921 when I need to drive lag bolts, excellent video as always both tools are great with the swops,

Great collaboration!

Yeah my gen 4 just got a bit twisted in it today at work… when I saw this video my first thought was “this is the future of impact drivers.” They keep making these things more and more powerful and we’re gonna have to either make leaps and bounds in metallurgy or go to something with more beef even just for driving torx deck screws into a trailer like I was today

Dave at man caver tools and Jim at Philly Fixed Killing it with these custom impact Driver Conversions to impact wrenches @Torque Test Channel

Between my new makita 40v GDT01 impact driver, and GWT07D 1/2" mid torque impact wrench there's not much I can't do on my vehicles and trucks. I even used the mid torque to bust lugs off my semi truck. 0 problems. Loving the new 40v line. I'm slowly upgrading from 18v . Just ordered the new hammer drill. Can't wait to use it on some concrete work I'm going to be doing at the house.

Wow and there it is I got to get this done.

Impressed how small the dcf850 with the 3/8 anvil

Id be interested seeing how Milwaukees factory 1/4 square anvil impact guns compared to their 1/4 hex counter parts but I’ve only seen them on the website. Like the 2461 vs 2462 or the 2463 since it’s 3/8 already.

Where has this channel been my whole life?? Railway guns, Gas powered Milwaukee impacts, and reviews of things I use every day? Its Project Farm with way more chaos lol

I did the Kobalt XTR 3/8’s conversion 🎉 works pretty well

I made one of those and they are light with the small battery and work great.

I did a 3/8 swap on my dcf840 and its pretty solid I also did a 1/4 square drive anvil on my dcf850 and love it. 3/8 swap using the dcf902 anvil, And 1/4 inxh swap done with the mac tools mcf801 anvil. N802062 is the part number. Id like to see some 1/4 inch impact wrenches compared. They are great for dash work and engine bay work, and most tool trucks are the only ones that offer any unfortunately

Made both dcf850 and the Milwaukee gen4 in 3/8 and they will both do the same exact job I’m really impressed they both will smoke any factory built Milwaukee or Dewalt.

That Kobalt was a beast!

I actually made a Gen 3 impact driver in a 3/8 drive. I had to get a little creative with the front bushing but it has so far proven very tough and incredibly spicy. Let me know if you want to test it, seeing as the 3/8 Milwaukees do tend to run better for some reason. Very happy with it.

God I love that impact drivers make such spicy wrenches

im always impress by my mil 2854 3/8 stubby impact bought it to replace my 3/8 snap-on got fed up of the brand and i always find myself trying my 3/8 impact wrench on bolt & nuts i shouldn't. working in the rust belt. make me smile everytime it can unbolt stuff a 3/8 shouldn't be able to! 🤣 like 1500 truck lug nuts of course i only do one just for giggle and making sure its not broken! 😅

I made the 3/8 dcf850 and it is great liked the dcf850 so much I bought 2 and they work really good.

this makes me want to put a 3/8ths onto my milwaukee driver lol I use it exclusively as a mini impact

Wow the moded kobalt Xtr is killing the chart

Love to see that gen 4 in 3/8

One I'd like to build is a Dewalt DCF801 with the ¼" square drive anvil from the Mac MCF901. I've seen a few guys do the DCF902 with the MCF901 anvil but never the 3 speed DCF801 as the foundation 🤔

It would be nice if you could test the older DCF887. It also has 3/8" and 1/2" mods. I personally use it with the 1/2" and it's pretty solid.

Great, another tool I didn’t know existed but now I have to have it. Also any chance you’ll be testing the new craftsman high torque?

That 3/8 dew alt is wicked, I haven’t even watched the torque test yet

Finally! Lol. I was beginning to wonder about the XTR. 275 ft/lbs. Not too shabby. I know it has no problems on any lugnut I own. But nice to finally see the numbers. I love all of these haha. Would love to see the newer Metabo (Hikoki) WR36DC Wrench. It looks to be similar to the DB in new clothes 🤷🏼‍♂️

I did almost the same thing with my XTR, except I used the 3/8 anvil

Thats for video helps sitting in hospital 👍👍👍👍 plus its a great day my son is probably going to get to come home today after his role over Saturday night and got 3 broken places in his neck one compounded fracture and broken shoulder blade lot of answered prayers that he is walking out of her 🙏

This channel is insane!!!! AND I LOVE IT!!!!!😂😂😂😂

This is like putting 44” mudder tires on a Toyota Tacoma. Can it be done? Yes!

Not trying to piss off any Milwaukee users but I love the new DeWalt Atomic impact wrench. So fun and easy to use. I also got the 12 volt line from DeWalt because they are more comfortable to my hands. I also hate the Milwaukee collars. Even though it's fixable under warranty, Milwaukee has became a pain in the ass to get your tools to them.

Kobalt has to put those into production NOW!!

I am a Kobalt fan and user. I am waiting to see the test of the new mid torque wrench. We need to see videos on how to do these mods.

Did TTC ever review the DeWalt DCF887? I thought you had, but I'm not seeing it on the spreadsheet. I seem to remember purchasing it because it was the next best offering in the DeWalt line, as the DCF850 wasn't available yet.

I like your testing it's very good but it would be nice to see what kind of efficiency these tools have , is there any way you can monitor the current as well as a voltage while doing your testing I'm a EE electronics engineer if you need help on how to do Let me know

I've got one I made 2 years ago and I'm still using it as my daily impact and would love to send it to you for review

Always inspired by the guys and gals fabercobbling the coolest shit on KZfaq 👍👍👍 love your vids TTC!

It would be interesting to see how much torque a drill driver puts out (Forward/Reverse). With people now using them with Ice auger attachments along with several other things they've not been used for previously thanks to the increase in power, I think it would be cool to see.

I think size should count for more in this chart. Going through all the trouble to get something less powerful but this small then deciding you need to save a few bucks and get a few more ft lbs by getting the Kobalt is a bit silly. If I wanted one I'd even consider going with the DeWalt for smaller overall size even with the lower power and higher cost.

I had ridgid stuff a while back and had seen some conversions to 3/8 and eventually I found the info it was a Milwaukiee anvil and I nu st had to remove a small collar on the inside and it went right in if I recall correctly it was like 5 years ago

Man I’m so going to do the Milwaukee one just because

I'd love to see some Hilti tools tested.

Fascinating

I have the dewalt impact and its amazing how small it is I literally fit it and all the bits I need and the XR 5ah battery in a pencil case

I would buy one of those stubbies if it ever came to market those would be so handy.

Anxious to see some testing on the new m12 high output 2.5/5.0 batteries! When should we be expecting that video sir?

Out of curiosity, did you have any plans to test some more ballpoint presses? You mentioned in your first video on them that you had planned to test more.

Would be neet to see Philly Fixed or man caver tools take the Dcf840 and mod them with 3/8 and 1/2 anvils to compare against the Dcf850s @Torque Test Channel

I wonder if the gen 4 M18 was converted into a 3/8"s anvil version, if it would have done better?

I was hoping we would be seeing the dewalt freak man caver tools built today. Maybe in the future.

kinda want to do the 3/8 conversion to my driver i would use it alot more

My Ridgid 1/2” subcompact snaps off my 1500 Sierra lug nuts at 140 ft lbs had to have them on and off a lot recently for some fixes been pretty happy with the little guy

Could they make the 1/2" anvil also have a 1/4" hex insert for normal driver bits? That would be a sick combo tool.

I gotta believe that Milwaukee’s gen 4s are made for their new batteries that they plan on coming out with, whenever that may be

I use a makita dtw 300z on a daily basis up to 6hours a day. It’s a great tool for what I use it for but it’s starting to show wear and tear after 18 months. Always used with 5amp battery. What do you suggest I upgrade to??

When you finally admit that these tools are really intended for DRIVING SCREWS, I laughed, because I know I don't even really need half that much power anyways!

once we figure out axial flux motors cost at this size this category is going to be insane.

Is there a way to purchase the parts needed for conversion with out purchasing both impacts??? Because u should change the prices to reflect the modifications

I didn’t know you can race these too.

I made my own gen3 m18 Frankenstein. It was amazing for 1sie 2sie bolts but ended up dieing a hot miserable death tightening down 25-35 7/8-9 bolts at a time to over 200ft/lbs. RIP little choocher. You will be missed. 😢

I wonder how those torque multipliers would hold up with these shootouts.

would be nice to consider the noise in the over all rating

By any chance, would you be able to test out the new Kobalt 1/2 impact wrench against the new mid torque Dewalt?

How's the length vs the right angle impacts. Might be cool to have an ajustable handle.

I want the 3/8 gen 4!! Milwaukee would be better than the stubby 3/8 12v I assume??? I need something lightweight for my tennis elbow

I do like the 3/8 dewalt mod, strictly for size, it has enough power for what I'd use it for.

When you tighten fasteners in rapid succession sound becomes the larger issue. I want it tight in 5 taps. I will spend any amount of money to make that happen. My favorite impact of all time is Milwaukee 2654-20. It still works and I still use it in the garage. I ALWAYS have the current best 3/8 battery impact in my 50k snap on tool box at work. I have smoked or sold off many between the 2654 and current. One was yellow. Big mistake. None were snap on. I miss the 2654 at work because of the noise. My 2554 now needs quite a few more Uga-Dugan. I can dial my titanium quiet within 10lbs. I torque critical fasteners thousands of times per month. I have hurt myself many times when the socket came off. Snap on helps for that but if you can’t get a solid grip…. Or when it lets loose and I go flying off the truck it sucks. It hurts for sometimes months. I want a repeatable impact for precisely applying torque. Please please help.

I just want to know about Torque NM Value. If I use impact wrench only for motorcycle but it's 100cc scooter(VF100 or VM100N) Is it suitable for 100cc scooter at least over 500NM or 800NM? Sometimes I need to repair or replace CVT belt or engine parts. Also I'm looking for cheapest one.

Please review the New Hart 20v 1/2 brushless impact its coming out within a few weeks!!!!

These tiny impacts look funny with those big batteries. That's why I prefer M12 when applicable. The 2.0 batteries let you get into tight places.

How does the modded XTR impact driver compare to the Kobalt dedicated impact wrenches?

We got a video on how to do the xtr mod? I bought them both a few months ago and wanted to do this exact thing. I want to see Kobalt put out a XTR "compact" impact based on this swap.
