    I’m done with Harbor Freight, time to get a real impact gun. Someone told me to get the Milwaukee 2763

    However I’ve found more 2767’s for sale cheaper and the torque rate on the 2767 is higher...

    Tightening torque
    2763 has 700
    2767 has 1000

    Reverse torque
    2763 has 1000 or 1100 I can’t remember which
    2767 has 1400!!!

    I know the anvil is different as far as brushless vs pin.... is that all?

    Someone help me, I’ve done a lot of research and I’m about tired of looking. I just wanna go buy one already!

    I bought the Milwaukee 2767 -22 kit came with 2 batteries and charger works really good takes the lugs off my tri axle dump with no problem,and will torque them up to I believe 1000 ft lbs depending on which setting you have it on.

    Ok I’m just needing something that would remove a lug but no problem.

    But why is the 2767 cheaper if it has more torque than the 2763? And more reverse torque?

    Home Depot stocks the Milwaukee electric impact gun. If I recall correctly, their biggest impact gun does 1400 ft lbs and costs about $200. Their next one does 220 ft lbs, and costs about $150. The battery is sold seperately. I couldn’t find a packet in their store that comes with the battery and tool. I got the 220 ft-lb tool because the 1400 is too big, and I haven’t found the need to remove a bolt that tight. You would have to be a real mechanic or need to remove some semi tires to need 1400.
