Using an electric impact wrench to raise jacks?

I heard somewhere that an electric impact wrench works well for raising and lowering trailer jacks. I used an electric drill until it gave up and now I'm using the crank that came with the trailer. ...

Assuming you are refering to the stabilizers - You don't need an impact wrench. I use my battery powered drill to do this. You might have to adjust the tourque, or give it a twist manually to get going, but the impact is overkill.

Why did you give up on the electric drill? Mine is a Craftsman.
