Astro Pneumatic Tool 4980 0.498" Shank Super Duty Air Hammer/Riveter

Astro Pneumatic Tool 4980 0.498" Shank Super Duty Air Hammer/Riveter

Q: How big and nasty is she?

Be prepared for action when you pull the trigger! I can't speak to the durability as I don't use it often. Used it on some hubs and ball joints and can say it speeds things up considerably compared to my old Snap On. Wish she was around when I worked in the rust belt.

Q: So this is the big nasty that sma uses? i gotta get one now.

Yes. It is big and nasty. It is SMA approved.

Q: Would this work correctly to remove Torsion Bar on a 1997 Ford F-150 4x4?

I just used this to remove the torsion bars on my 98 F150 because I needed to replace my lower control arms. My torsion bars were frozen solid to the key at the rear and the control arm up front from 22 years of rust. This Big Nasty air hammer made the job possible for the amateur shade tree parts changer that I am. It still wasn't easy, but it got the job done. If this tool won't accomplish the task I suggest you just light the truck on fire and walk away.
