You shouldn't remove the first nut completely the U bolts normally shake so the impact beats are useless after you remove the first nut installet again and remove the second nut from rust
I tried removing nuts from a brake caliper with my 1000 foot pound impact wrench 1/2 with a small socket and that mf won’t loosen up 🤣 I put a bigger socket that mf came off super easy I was ready to return my impact I was like fuck this shet 😅 but sockets do really help size and also if ur in a tight space well good luck 👍
If I got easy access to whatever I'm breaking lose I always use the big old cheap impact deep wells. They are super thick the weight and extra rigidity helps a lot transferring the power of the impact to the bolt.
The U Bolt is loose [shaking] your loosing most if not all of the impacts. Tighen the other one back up and try again. Or wedge something in the back there to secure the U Bolt.
Every impact is being absorbed by the movement of the bracket. It really is important to understand how an impact actually works. A 3/8 extended handle ratchet would remove these without an issue.
I had a little 14mm bolt that the same setup, high torque + xc6.0 couldn’t handle. I had on my deep socket so it was full beans. Blowtorch, penetrating oil. Not sure how but it was impossible
Does it have a A OR B in serial # ? The B had issues and internals where crap vs the A model so u need to send it in if u have a B model. Either way, if its under 5yr old theyll fix It. Mine broke 2 weeks before my 5yr receipt was up. They fixed it. I have first yr 2017 2767 impact
The 6.0 HO has Samsung t30 cells that are actually more powerful then the 8.0ah and 12.0ah HO’s that have t40 cells. The t40 cell last longer but the t30 stays cooler and discharges more amps with a lower voltage drop, comparable to the new Forge battery
@@jvke.pI hope I’m not wrong brother but that looks like the mid torque. I work on Diesels and my high torque has done great in many situations. I use my mid torque a lot though, and I’m some occasions the 1 inch monster is standing behind waiting for its opportunity to shine in case the high torque isn’t doing the job.
@@kwmiked I run the 3, 6, 8 and 12 HO Batteries with my High Torque Impact and yes there's a pretty good jump in power. I work on commercial vehicle's on the daily and have ran across fasteners that the 6 or 8 couldn't remove, but the 12 could. TTC does have some cool vids with there test rig, but in real world applications the initial breakaway Ugga Duggas with no more than 5-10 seconds is what counts on a fastener not a continuous run up in max power. No need to abuse my tools for longer than that. If anything Shop tool reviews has a more realistic set up with his test rig using repeatable accurate Industrial Torque guns to set the ft.lbs. This gentleman may not have had a deep socket, but that's what I mainly run since the additional mass does make a difference. I'll only run standard sockets when I have no room. If all else fails I'll bust out Big Bertha with a 1inch Avil and 3000 ft.lbs breakaway fury 🤣💪
@@russellleahy Really? Darn it! Selling all my 8 and 12 HO batteries ASAP plus throwing in my Lisle 77080 Honda Crank Bolt socket for good measure since it doesn't make a difference 🤣 🤦♂️
These trailers are the bane of my existence. I worked for a trailer repair place for 6 years and I’d get these in all the time for rust repair. Fucking hated them with a passion. Most of them had been cut and shut too because they were imported from the states and our legal width in aus is 2500 and they were over. So rust before they even enter the country
One issue u got is the b model impact. Mine does that also where it would impact for like a slight seconds n then finally go. Also milwakuee has this on most of there impacts is the battery wobbles so much due to impacts from the actual tool causing the battery terminal connections to spread causing low power
impacts lose almost all their capability if the whole assembly is loose. clamp it down or put the first nut back on. or better yet cut the damn thing only idiots would re-use that rusty junk.
We all learned one thing today. Maintain your sh*t. Don’t rely on tools to bail you out all the time WD-40, Krown and other grease will prevent situations like this
Those u-bolts should’ve been cut off anyway, if they were that rusty! Just because you have an impact wrench doesn’t mean it’s the first thing you go to.
All of these people talking about sockets what your problem really is the vibration if you lean against the board or even sat on it preventing it to move, it would’ve came out much easier. How because all your impact is going into that board thing and not the bolt hence why it’s vibrating in the first place
Man put some pb on that rusty ass boat it’s probably bonded itself together with the rust. You can’t just manhandle everything. But I have no idea what your arsenal looks like.
How weird, I thought Milwaukee was a really good brand. I took apart my boat trailer bunks and replaced everything at the storage yard, including the stands with a Porter Cable impact and a standard 2 amp hour battery.
Where could I find the sockets to fit this impact drill? Home Depot doesn’t have it, ACE hardware store doesn’t have it either. If anyone knows what’s the socket or adapter I need that would be great thank you.
That's not how u take u bolts out. As the other comments on here have already said, try putting a vice grip on the bolt part to hold it still. I used to do u bolts on straight trucks and even a 3/4" air gun wouldn't get em out if I let it wobble like that.
Do you know 100% this will work take yourself free propane or Mapp gas torch and heat them bolts up to as hard as you can spray wd40 on blaster then put impact
I used to use that impact all the time but the 3/4" hits harder and it doesnt twist the anvil into a spiral. 1/2" mid torque hits the perfect amount for that size of anvil
Put back the other nut, snug it then rip the last one out. All that movement robbed it of the torque. It's like trying to use a worn out socket

This is the way.
Go forward and reverse. Rock it

Good to know, thanks!
Whenever you have bolt stuck like that.. don’t just hold it on there.. forward reverse.. forward reverse.. it will pop.
Milwaukee has a setting on it with a sequence. I just use that.
@@CrushedEMTBwhat setting
I used this impact and it was the best thing I’ve ever used, it got 20 year old trailer tire lug nuts loose in a couple seconds
Bigger/heavier socket

That only works with thicker sockets if they are just longer it don't work

you need a real socket on an impact that size
I break the first one free and retighten it on a lower setting to take the play/vibration off the bracket then break the second one free
That’s pretty smart. I’ll do that next time. Thank you for the tip.
@@CrushedEMTB not a problem! Best of luck
Win for the Milwaukee tool, fail for the tool using it...
😂😂😂😂 operator fail
U bolt was shaking. Never going to come off like that.
I just bought my 1/2 in impact and love it, it kicks ass even with the 4a battery
Every impact is being absorbed by the movement of the bracket. It really is important to understand how an impact actually works. A 3/8 extended handle ratchet would remove these without an issue.
Doesn't Milwaukee recommend their Forge batteries for maximum torq specs?
A fancy tool is not enough heat and PB Blaster, and a little bit of experience go a long way
Need a bigger socket as well that would really help having more mass. But a snap on impact is better!
Did ya try with wd40? 😉
I was too lazy to go to the store

Wurth boltex would also help much.
it's way easier just to break them off
You should get a black rubber cover for you're new tool. They sale them at Home Depot.
I look for them. What section are they in? I didn’t see not one.
watch as he turns a impact wrench into a expense vibrator
Thats when you put that mid torque away and pop out the high torque beast. I have the whole line up for different situations. 😅
Pretty sure that’s the high torque. Not the mid

The 6ah battery helped a lot.
A deep socket with it's extra mass would have made that a bit easier. The 6 Amp slacked it while the 12 Amp said hold my 🍺 😂👍🏻

Bigger socket deep well.
My thoughts plus some penetrating oil.
Ol reliable will always get it done

Its because its vibrating. Like cutting a piece of wood with a Sawzall and not holding it.
Gotta give it the "no mercy reversey"
Try using a deep well socket makes a difference
impacts lose almost all their capability if the whole assembly is loose. clamp it down or put the first nut back on. or better yet cut the damn thing only idiots would re-use that rusty junk.
Makes sense, thanks!
100% you didnt torch them but i guess its a better test without heat
We all learned one thing today. Maintain your sh*t. Don’t rely on tools to bail you out all the time
WD-40, Krown and other grease will prevent situations like this
I wonder if a heavier socket would’ve helped
It was because I didn’t snug the other socket back on the U-boat
Being that rusted I would’ve put some Penetrant on their. Kimball Midwest makes some damn good stuff. “Torq CB”. Have you ever tried it?
It smells good too
Those u-bolts should’ve been cut off anyway, if they were that rusty! Just because you have an impact wrench doesn’t mean it’s the first thing you go to.
If it didn't work, break out the Sawzall!
Did you try using a drill 😂
If you need more beans, get the new high torque and forge battery. Thing is a absolute beast like when the original came out
Heat them up with a heat induction tool.
Put a heavy socket and it’ll remove it or break it .
I know what’s wrong with it, it ain’t got no gas in it

Kept going maybe the rusty trailer will just snap and you can slide the bracket off after
Not a fail, figure it out.
PB blast and wire brush the threads first
use urself some pb blaster bro
How weird, I thought Milwaukee was a really good brand.
I took apart my boat trailer bunks and replaced everything at the storage yard, including the stands with a Porter Cable impact and a standard 2 amp hour battery.
Apparently, I didn’t tighten the other bolts which shook the bottom one taking away the torque. It was operator error.
Where could I find the sockets to fit this impact drill? Home Depot doesn’t have it, ACE hardware store doesn’t have it either. If anyone knows what’s the socket or adapter I need that would be great thank you.
What model is this impact
That's not how u take u bolts out. As the other comments on here have already said, try putting a vice grip on the bolt part to hold it still. I used to do u bolts on straight trucks and even a 3/4" air gun wouldn't get em out if I let it wobble like that.
Use the 8.0
Try a weighted impact socket next time.
You are losing all the torque when it's hopping around like that, you need to keep the bolt locked in place..
You can obv hear it rattling the u bolt. If it was secure it couldve been done in 1 second.
I know now.
Not the impacts fault, the whole thing is loose so all the impact force goes to shaking it around instead of getting nut loose
Thank you. 1 million people have pointed this out. I will absolutely do this next time.
Try tightening to break it loose
It's not about it being "the biggest they make" just buy FORGE batteries, none of those 6AH bs.
If it's a U Bolt try a deep socket Mabe some heat 😅
Do you know 100% this will work take yourself free propane or Mapp gas torch and heat them bolts up to as hard as you can spray wd40 on blaster then put impact
Does he think that socket is the appropriate one for the job?
Saws all
Don't blame Milwaukee for the dummy using the tool😂
Does anyone can comment a link where to buy that kind of impact wrench? Thanks! from Philippines!
It's on Amazon: Milwaukee impact wrench.
I have the A model, but still does that stutter crap. Very annoying.
My hercules ultra tq would make light work of that nut.
it's not the wrench it's the spring action of the U bolt been there and done it got more than half off . he did better than me U bolt dampen impact
We pretty much only have 12.0s at work
Bigger socket
Mate retighten the other side it's a impact wrench???
If the serial # starts h96b they have a recall
For reals??
heat that shit up cuz makes it a lot easier
Thanks
Bro has never heard of penetrating fluid…
You need weighted sockets.
should have but the nut back on before trying to take out the last one it did not fail you failed to understand what was going on
A tool is only as effective and "smart" as it's user.
You're using a shallow socket... What do you expect? You want a heavy deep well socket. more weight = more UGGA DUGGA.
It didn’t fail, you failed to use a Dewalt Reciprocating saw. (Can’t say Sazall because then it be a Milwaukee😂)
I used to use that impact all the time but the 3/4" hits harder and it doesnt twist the anvil into a spiral. 1/2" mid torque hits the perfect amount for that size of anvil
Use a pneumatic impact instead.
Honestly at that point, just cut off the u-bolt and replace it wit a new one.
Wrong socket obviously.
You’re losing most of your torque by allowing side to side slop on the u bolt
Torque is being lost with all that movement.
The Ryobi not(ree-o-bee)would've broke it loose no problem...
Would’ve been a lot faster to just cup it off.
U wanna use my dewalt 😂?
