Default Perch pin removal Q..

Recently here I was shown a video (Bishop/Tardel) instructions on how to remove perch pins from front axle . using HEAT and IMPACT WRENCH.
I'm going to try their method. Situation is, I do not have an impact wrench. Harbor freight shows a set of tools and wrench combo. As usual they are pretty 'cheaply' priced.
Is this tool sufficient to do the perch pin job or would you guys suggest something otherwise

Lots of penetrating oil and don't mushroom over the threads. Take your time because the design let in many years of water. Most are rusted in pretty good.
