torque for wheels
#13

I don't like the potential for damage that comes with impact wrenches. So, I use a torque multiplier with a cordless drill to remove the nuts (with a 78:1 ratio, there is very little stress on my wrists, but plenty of power to break things loose).
I use the cordless drill to seat the nuts when reinstalling the wheels & you must be very careful when using the torque multiplier to pre-torque the nuts so as to not exceed rated torque. I finish off with a torque wrench.

There is no need for compressed air, but it will require a bit of effort. . . .

So there are many options to choose from.
