I'm glad my impact was up to the task. .I haven't gotten to try it on that nut yet but I figured it'd work out okay. Also glad you went Tim Allen here. Ugh ugh ugh.

I was able to torque that nut without an impact but it wasn't pretty. I think I had a giant pipe wrench and breaker bar to do it.

I had planned on just using a breaker bar on it but I have the bike up on the stand and I think the torque would have flipped it off the stand so had to use the wrench.
Had the bike been on the ground in the wheel chock I would have used the bar on it.

That impact though is a good tool to have for sure

That will be interesting to see how it tackles the main shaft nut, let us know if you put it to the test.

It's pretty bad *** but I have come across lug nuts that it couldn't loosen.

Looking good suede! I zipped my pulley nut on with my impact too. I was trying to torque mine down with a breaker bar and cheater when the motor was out and thought I was going to rip the trans out of the frame. That electric impact is bad ***, I got dibs if you want to get rid of it!

It's a keeper man but I'll put a note in it's box it's to be given to you if I get kilt!

That's kilt as in dead, not kilt as in skirt

monster the trick to getting that impact on a deal is Home Depot does a sale every Christmas season. .last two years anyway. You buy the 2763-20 bare impact and one of their 'kits' (Usually priced around $350) and they apply $150 discount across the two items. So you might get like $50 off the impact and $100 off the kit. Then just return the kit and keep the discount on the impact.

Mine was already on sale when I did this so I snagged it for $125 or so.

Other option is zoro.com. They usually do a 30% off sale during big holidays like 4th of July.

Kind of a funny thing in the 2014 Dyna SM, Page 3-31, Image 3-18; drain plug makes a funny cameo appearance where it doesn't belong. I wonder if someone did it as a joke or accident. I don't know if it would violate copyright law so I didn't post a pic of that image.

Anyway, figured, when in doubt, post a pic of something.
