I need to get a 1/2" torque wrench and was looking for some opinions. I have noticed that some go up to 150 ft/lb while others go up to 250 ft lb.
1) Is there anything on an f-body that would require any where close to 150? (I understand that they become less accurate as you approach the limits) 2) What are you opinions on husky vs craftsman? Would you even consider getting one of the Made in China cheapies? Thanks, |

Sounds like guilty of a bad case of false advertising!! They don't warranty power tools for life and they exclude "precision tools" such as torque wrenches. hand tools are covered. I've replaced many things, from sockets and screw drivers to pliers, for no charge. Torque wrenches are explicitly exempt, same for power tools, air tools, and the like. |
