Can you switch out the anvil w/ friction ring assembly on the 2767-20 with an anvil with a detent pin? Sockets keep falling off and it’s annoying.
I’ve never tried but from looking at pictures I’m guessing it would work. The 2767 hog ring model and 2766 pin detent model actually have a different nose cone. The hog ring anvil can take more torque because it doesn’t have a hole in it so keep that in mind at $50-$60 the pin anvil may be more likely to break on the 2767 impact.
I’m curious about this also. I can’t find an anvil with the detent pin that fits the 2767-20 impact. I work in powerline construction and when drilling a pole, the drill bit pulls off the end of the impact when I pull it back out of the pole.

The part number for the pin detent anvil from the 2766-20 impact is 42-06-2770. It can be found on ebay typically from $50-60 but I actually just looked and there is one for $30 right now.
I’m only assuming this works because the 2767-20 and 2766-20 are both the 2nd gen high torque impact and from the anvil pictures I posted above they look as though the anvils would be interchangeable but I don’t know that for certain. When they released the 2nd gen high torque impacts they said that the pin detent anvil couldn’t handle the 1400ft/lbs of nut busting torque that the 2767-20 model has because of the hole in the anvil so the 2766-20 pin detent model only has 1100ft/lbs of nut busting torque. I would guess that’s only an issue in extreme conditions but just something to keep in mind.
