    Please do keep in mind that most of our Patrol OEM torque specs are circa 130Nm ish for wheel nuts I believe (double check your manual/model variants) to be sure!
    No particular favour but I’ve just downgraded my onboard 1,000Nm beast Milwaukee 18v 1/2” (ring drive a must/never pin) to a 600Nm 18v 1/2” ring drive purely for usage weight with crook hands.
    For tool longevity it is best I believe to go 1/2” drive as O-TJ-O kindly suggested above and I’d personally suggest at a least 300Nm minimum for cracking (undoing) stubborn wheel nuts especially on trailers that may sit around for a while.
    NEVER rely on your rattle gun to torque up to OEM wheel specs properly again when refitting.
    A torque wrench is the only way to be fully sure for that last correct nip up after spinning the nuts back on quickly with your new coming gun of choice
