A power tool includes a first housing portion and a second housing portion, a motor directly mounted between the housing portions with an output shaft defining an axis, and a gear assembly supported within the housing and including a ring gear directly supported by the housing portions, a pinion gear coupled for co-rotation with the output shaft, and planet gears meshed with the pinion gear and the ring gear. The power tool also includes a drive assembly operably coupled to the gear assembly with a camshaft, an anvil, a hammer configured to reciprocate along the camshaft to impart rotational impacts to the anvil, and a spring biasing the hammer towards the anvil. The ring gear includes lugs engaged with the first housing portion and the second housing portion to rotationally constrain the ring gear.
