See how well they hold up with a 1/2 drive impact gun. Hope they don't explode like Mac sockets do.

I have impact sockets for the impact gun. Even if chromes dont explode it ***** up the drive end of socket.

My Snap-On never had a problem with them. Had bought some Mac sockets because the dealer offered a deal on them. 3 of us got them. Each of us had a socket or 2 explode. The one guy had to go to the ER to get the pieces out of his hand. So, I've been careful about sockets ever since.

To remove the lug nuts from the wheels on my Power Wagon. Have to use a deepwell 6 point thinwall. Nothing else fits. One my Z. Have to use a deepwell 7 point spline thinwall.

Id never use any chrome on an impact, just for that reason, snap-on or not. Sucks you are stuck in the situation were you are forced to do it.

You could rent a blower too.

As for the door - if replacing it with an insulated door is not in the cards... Amazon will come through for you.

Have impact sockets too. But sometimes, just end up using the chromies.
