An angle type power wrench includes a housing, a motor, an output shaft and an angle drive connecting the motor to the output shaft. The angle drive includes a drive pinion provided with a forward gear head, and a bevel gear provided on the output shaft and engaged by the drive pinion gear head. The drive pinion is surrounded by a bearing support sleeve supporting a forward drive pinion bearing and a rear drive pinion bearing axially spaced from the forward drive pinion bearing. The forward drive pinion bearing includes an inner ball race at a forward end of the drive pinion at or very close to the gear head, and an outer ball race at a forward end of the bearing support sleeve wherein the bearing support sleeve is connected to the housing via an adjustment connection adapted to enabling adjustment of an axial position of the drive pinion.
