hate to say it. but i work on pneumatics and hydrolics. and depending on the model of your IR, they hit like girls. i can sell you a CP at half the price and get WAY more life and power. IR has too tight of tolerances, and use soft medals too much in their guns. allows for small air leaks within the motor kiling power

FINALLY installed a New wiper arm and the blade. I can't remember how the damn hose goes in the arm/wiper blade. Can someone help me out? Maybe post a picture for me. I'd really appreciate it! THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I also broke down and bought a Gas cap. Haha. The top on my old one broke off and all I've been using was the screw bottom.

Wow, news to me. My snap on hits like a ton of bricks! From a pro stand point are they better than IR?

snap ons are decent. but they have major drawbacks also. id put them next to eachother honestly. they both have their issues, their good models, and their junk. im gonna go into the shop and see if we have a snap on in. ill try and show you what they like to do. oh. and if you use pneumatic tools at all. oil them, daily. you want it to last, oil it. peroid. nothing can destroy a good tool faster than two things. running them dry, and letting water in your air supply

thats debatable. its the same at wranglers vs. cherokees. full of one sided opinions. but in my opinion i wouldnt spend the money on snap on air tools at all. Im not a big fan of the smaller IR impacts, but when you get to their 1" and 1 1/2" impacts they are hard to beat. ive seen CP impacts come in here missing parts and broken hammers and they still peg our skidmore. like i said take care of whatever you have and it should last. one more tip. if the impact doesnt want to break the nut or bolt loose, dont hammer on for too long. its a good way to explode the front end of your gun
