mdamore419 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I bought one of the wheel cleaning kits and when I opened it yesterday and tried using the turbo stick in my drill, It was too big for my drill and my drill didn't come with any attachments that would fit it...

0 chops1sc Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Does your drill use an adjustable chuck? Or is it a 1/4" drive setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Beemer Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Call Adam's. They will take it back no problem. Or buy a new drill with a larger chuck. That gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 blcksilv08 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 What type of drill is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mdamore419 Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 What type of drill is it? It is a compact drill. When my neighbor told me about how great a compact drill is vs. a regular drill, i decided just to get one of them when my regular drill stopped working. I'm thinking that was a bad idea because it does not have the adjustable end to fit the turbo stick like my old drill had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chris@Adams Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 The Turbo Stick will work in any standard battery or corded drill......I saw several battery drills on sale at Lowes yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking that was a bad idea because it does not have the adjustable end to fit the turbo stick like my old drill had. I'm going to assume since it is not adjustable its a 1/4 quick connect like on an impact driver. If that's the case you could use something like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000KKWLE8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1459726296&sr=8-3&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=keyless+chuck+adapter&dpPl=1&dpID=41Z8TOZy3mL&ref=plSrch The only issue with that is your drill is most likely not able to adjust power output via a clutch, so you would have to be careful not to damage the turbo stick.

0 LFairbanks Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Can never have too many tools. Good excuse to buy a new drill. Go buy a 3/8 drill and if it is cordless stay away from ni-cad. Go with a lithium ion. Kingsford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kingsford Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Thats odd. I have an old Craftsman NexTec 12v that is a compact drill and it fits. Time to trade up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
