Gorilla Automotive Power Wrench Socket

If you have a job that is defeating a standard lug wrench – or just don’t have the time to mess around, the Gorilla Automotive 1334 Power Wrench will provide you with the torque you need!  The expandable handle which telescopes to 21 inches allows you to generate twice as much torque as a standard lug wrench, yet compacts down to 14 inches to allow for convenient storage.

This product has two socket sizes: 3/4 in (19mm) and 13/16 in (21mm).  It also comes with a 3 inch extension, and fits into all recessed lug nut holes.  In particular, it works on “Deep Dish” wheels, where the hub mounting surface is toward the back (i.e. brake side) of the wheel.

Users found that it was highly effective at dealing with over-tight lug nuts, and all agreed this tool did its job and was definitely worth the money, especially at an emergency roadside tire change.  As well as loosening lug nuts, it will likewise provide enough torque to tighten them sufficiently to be assured of having the wheel safely on, such as when doing regular tire rotations.

One particularly helpful thing that you will appreciate is that after the lug nut is loosened, you can retract the handle so that the lug nut can be spun off quickly without bumping the handle into the ground.  You will also like the rubber handle – perfect for non-slip operation in the rain or during hot and sweaty weather.

Whether you’d like the extra torque available to you in case the need arises, or if you are looking for something easy to use to store in the car for the new driver in your family, the Gorilla Automotive Power Wrench Socket will pay dividends at the roadside tire change.

User Reviews:

If you have ever struggled with an over-tightened lug nut on a wheel, this is the tool for you! Let those tire monkeys bring on their impact sockets, with the Gorilla Wrench, you can break the nuts easily. I liked it so much, I bought another one to put in my wife's CRV. Simple, solidly built, and very effective.

Easier than a 4 way to loosen lug nuts.. Works with custom wheels that require a thin wall socket. Have one I purchased locally several years ago, extremely satisfied, needed one for another car with custom wheels, could not find locally.. with amazon free shipping I ordered 2. received in a couple of days.

This is a great tool everyone should have in the trunk of each car and in the garage.

I swap out winter tire/wheel combos every season and I got tired of killing myself using the standard Ford or Honda wrenches I'd used. I also put one in my wife's car in case of a roadside flat changeout. There's no way she would be able to remove the lug nuts using the standard OEM wrench. This is a very well designed tool and it seems like something that would last for a lifetime.
