Torque and Chrome

How do you control the torque on an electric impact wrench?

Is it even possible to regulate torque on these? For example if I need to tighten my lug nuts to 90 ft/lbs?

1. You can't. Buy a torque wrench.
2. Most do not have any adjustment for torque settings. Put them on with the impact wrench then use a lug wrench by hand to see if they are tight enough. I know it's not the correct way of doing it but it works at the side of the highway.
3. You can't ...there are products called Torque Sticks for installing lugnuts to the proper torque settings or use a torque wrench. Sears, Snap-On, Mac Tools and others carry them or online places like this one........ http://www.torquestick.com/cart/customer/product.php?productid=27&cat=0&page=
