Milwaukee M12 Hex to 3/8' Impact Conversion

In this video I swap in a 3/8" anvil to turn a budget bought Gen 2 Milwaukee M12 2553 impact that I got on sale from a 1/4" hex to a 3/8" drive for sockets.

Part number for the 3/8" anvil is 42-06-1010

Questions?

You should definitely sell these bushings for $14.99 free shipping. You'd make a killing!!!

I made one a while back but my anvil is super loose, it’s like a built in swivel 😂 that m12 3/8 converted is strong and really compact.

You should start selling the bushings!

Thanks for posting this. I was looking at anvils that would "kind of" fit. I had this one picked out but was still skeptical. Thanks to this video I have it ordered and will install it shortly! I think i will make the reducer bushing out of steel as I do not have any brass/bronze.

It would be great if you made bushings to sell!

This video inspired me. Ive got a DCF900 that Id really like to upgrade to 3/4 as it seems to like to eat 1/2 sockets. The only example Ive found online is to take an anvil and bell housing from a DCF397, but dewalt has discontinued parts for them, and they dont really go for cheap online.

I wonder if i could modify the 3/4 anvil to fit in the DCF900 housing, or modify the housing to fit the new anvil. Or if there is some other 3/4 anvil that would work. Wish i had more money to throw around on this, and a workshop, would make a great video.

How much for the parts so I can do that

Simple DIYer here.
Yeeah...I think I'll just risk snapping the 1/4" anvil when I'm changing pickup tires with my Gen3 -unless you plan on selling these-

Please sell the kit or do this service we would happily pay for iy

Too bad I don't have a lathe, otherwise, I would totally convert my m12 1/4 to a 1/2.

[gordotiti]

Where do I send my M12 so you can convert it and how much?

[worksonit]

Would the 42-06-2554 anvil not work for this?

[cortezaz]

So what was the mistake you almost made? I totally missed it.

I was going to do this … but found a stubby for $136 with battery and charger so nvm 😂

[Kasu_zlp]

someone should do a conversion using the 1/2 bosch freak anvil ;)

[cotybear]

You should sell this as a service, especially for the gen 3

[ZaBigTalent]

Hi Mike. Your modding videos gave me an idea. I have a M12 hammer drill but I wish it had a locking bit hex collet rather than the 1/2 in chuck. I'm thinking of replacing the threaded shaft with a custom made hex shaft. How would you tackle such a project?

[LuiWrenches]

I will buy one of these impacts with the 3/8 conversion. Where can i purchase one?
