    You know Tekton makes a 1/2” drive 33mm socket? It’s like $8 off amazon. That’s what I’ve been using with my Milwaukee gun. It’s been working great!

    The reason I have a 3/4” socket is because my plans were to get the 3/4” Milwaukee impact wrench. I couldn’t get it online to be mailed using Prime shipping, so I went ahead and got the 1/2” Milwaukee from Home Depot. It turned out the 1/2” is better anyway since all of my sockets are 1/2” and lower.

    Do you have enough air volume with that set-up to loosen lug nuts ?

    Maybe not all 10 at once, but it will get the job done with a little patience.

    That's nothing to worry about. The popping sound is just from breaking the friction basically or just the initial sound of the fastener breaking loose from the threads
