I used a 3/4" Aircat impact gun with 160-PSI of air on it to remove, and later, initially install mine ... but I did also set the final torque for the tightening of it with a torque wrench.

I used a torque amplifier when checking mine after tightening it ( https://amzn.to/357JUuM ) and a torque wrench on its input set to roughly 360 ft-lbs. 360x3 = roughly 1,080 or so ft-lbs. I did this because I didn't trust the aircat at that high of torque.
