AUDT: Torque Wrench
Hi all.

AUDT: Another useless DarkOnion thread.

Where can I find a half decent and cheap Torque Wrench near Fremont? I looked online at Home Depot and Sears and they kind of run about $70. Sadly, $70 is a little too much for me. Let me know. TIA.

Figured I'd post this since there hasn't been any activity for like 15 minutes.

Yeah.

I figure that it'll come in handy. Besides, I don't want my wheels running away from like that guy's RX-7.

Mine was ~$100. It's a Craftsman. I think Kevin (of LIC fame) has a digital one that beeps when you have reached the right torque. It's sweet.

Save up and get a craftsman, you'll be happy you did in the long run.
