I tried everything for a week and a half to remove a Honda crankshaft bolt. Nothing worked. I bought this online and it was at my door the next day. Spun that crankshaft bolt off in under 3 seconds. Highly recommend.

A Little Heavy, but Well Worth the Weight
I own alot of Dewalt power tools. This Dewalt high torque impact wrench is powerful and more than enough battery power for constant use. You cannot beat the power, price and reliability of the Dewalt.

As good if not better than Milwaukee.
I’ve used the Milwaukee 1/2 inch impact from friends. Was wondering if the Dewalt would be just as good. Very surprised. Only bad thing I can say about this is the Milwaukee feels better in the hand. Mechanically speaking I would take the Dewalt 1/2 inch.

Strong Impact!
I've had this impact for a while now and I just purchased another one, these impacts are strong I use one for working on vehicles and the new one I purchased it to be used at work to torque walls,
foundation anchor bolts and concrete anchors this tool is strong. Dont over tighten it could easily happen, it also has a great light that has come in hand alot.

YELLOW BEAST
this is the best 300$ I have ever spend on a tool it has saved me so much headache I have beat the crap out of this thing for the past 2 years even to the point where I am scared it will blow up in my hand It still blows my mind, today I decided to write a review because I'm changing stock hubs from a 2010 traverse and they did not budge until they felt the wrath of the 2400 IPM! if she ever dies I would buy again in a heartbeat!

It has a three-speed control to adjust the torque (400, 1200, & 1900 RPM control), and 3 bright LED light to illuminate your work area. It also has a detent pin anvil and forward and reverse settings. It is 8.8 in. front to back and 7.2 lbs., well made, study and durable. Great tool that makes heavy impact nut breaking and driving tasks easy. I have looked for this at a good price for a year, found it on sale and had it for a week. It does all it says it will do and works well. I recommend this impact wrench as a needed tool for auto and building work.

great knocker
Not only is it good for car repairs it's also good for my medium duty cabover truck and plumbing. It does the trucks lug nuts and actually well I've never found something it couldn't break loose, or off... You wouldn't think plumbing but actually there's a lot of stuff that could make use of this tool...like replacing anode rods or attaching threaded adapters to go from npt to pex etc.

2" bolts.......it will break em loose
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this at the Stanley tool sale almost a year ago now. Hadent used it till 2 weeks ago, Working on a bus paint booth trying to remove three bearings so I could align the pulleys. I tried my 6 foot extendable ratchet had no room to spin it. So I got off the roof and got my DCF899 impact gun. And it laughed at the silly 2" bolts that were locked on pretty good!

Use it to believe it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use all manner of air wrenches from 1/4” up to 1” drives. I don’t even look at them anymore. The 899 will bust of tractor lug nuts effortlessly. Not being tied to the hassle of an air hose make the job less tedious and safe. Can’t say enough good things about this tool. P.S. clamped a new 5/8” bolt in a vice and this beast sheared it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally bought this impact to use with my RV, but it’s such an impressive tool that I haven’t used any of my pneumatic ones since. I haven’t come across any bolt or stud it can’t handle with ease!

Horrible quality
I bought this a couple months ago and the power and battery life was great. Being a mechanic I rely on my tools daily to do my job to get trucks on the road safely. This tool failed me after 4 months. The drive head shattered as I was using it. So as far as power and battery life yeah it's great. But if you expect this tool to last you might want to spend your money else where unless they upgrade the quality of the build on this tool.

This impact is a beast. I love it and wish I would have gotten it a long time ago. I tore apart the front end of my off road Jeep and installed a locker, new hub bearings and new axle shafts and the Dewalt impact did it all with ease including removing lug nuts like the were nothing. Highly recommend this Dewalt impact if you are a mechanic or just doing odd jobs around the house or farm.

Got this at an incredible Cyber Monday week price and could not be happier with it. Incredible torque - when did they start making these drill motors so powerful. It easily takes lug nuts off and puts them on, I almost didn't expect it to be able to. But it's smoothly powerful and in my case, prevented me from having to get an air impact wrench and larger air compressor. As I am getting older, taking trailer wheels, OHV wheels and sometimes pickup truck wheels will be so much easier than using the hand cross wrench. I've already used it on some and it's a dream compared to doing it manually. The huge bonus is interchangeable batteries with my other DeWalt tools so I have both backup power and I can also use the 5 AH battery with my drill and vacuum for longer work sessions. And the bag is big enough to hold a lot of stuff besides this drill.
A note for use - be sure to use only impact sockets, regular sockets can and will fracture and crack. Wear eye protection when using this - things can and do break and your eyesight is too valuable to risk.
This IS the wrench you're looking for - it sure was for me!

I bought this impact a while back and its been extremely useful. The only complain I have on it is that the bottom impact rubber protector (the one below the grip handle) doesn't protect the battery. When the impact is laid down on its side, the top two rubber protectors do help but on the bottom side the battery makes contact with the surface before the rubber protector does. I have noticed that the battery fits loose and that is the cause of it.
