Tool Renting

Does anyone know a place where they let you rent tools? Specifically an impact gun/wrench. I really need one but i dont want to spent like 400 bucks.

The cheapy Craftsman one was good enough to get my axle nut off, so I would think it's good enough. I don't think that there are many things torqued much harder than that on our cars.

Please note that Craftsman's warranty does not apply to power tools nor air tools, just hand tools.

Blake and I would know, we both worked at Sears!
