The cheap POS that came with my compressor died just before I did this job. I now have a new Harbor Freight down the street.
The cheaper Harbor Freight impact wrenches are useless. The one to get from them is the EARTHQUAKE series. They are reasonably priced and pretty powerful. Check the online price (www.harborfreight.com), as it's usually cheaper and they will honor it in the store. Also in the back of certain magazines (Popular Mechanics, NRA magazines, etc.) there is a small Harbor Freight ad with a 20% off coupon which is good even off a sale price.

It appears to be correct, and a good price if shipping is reasonable. I would check if they come with strut mounts/bearings. I did not replace mine, but would recommend it be done if you can afford it.
