Screw Driver Impact Tool
I saw a really cool screwdriver tool the other day but I can't find it anywhere. It's basically a steel screwdriver that you hit on the handle end with a hammer. When you hit it, it turns the screwdriver head. Usefull for removing those stubborn screws, like the ones holding the rear discs on. Anybody know what this is called and where I can find one?

you can also buy them at sears for ~$20. the guy behind the counter probably wont know what your talking about, but it should be in the auto tools section. its also in their catalog.

Yup, an impact screwdriver. Real handy on tough screws.
One note, though. Make sure you replace the screwdriver bits when the edges get worn/bent. That can be almost as frequent as every real hard use if the steel isn't hardened real high. Having the bit grab the screw slot or cross tightly is almost half the battle and if you bung that up you are a step back from "start".
