Re: torque wrenches?

They are prolly pretty good but what I don't like about them is trying to watch the needle while you are trying to torque down head bolts in sequence and if you don't have a lot of ass like me the engine stand want to move around.....trying to anchor the stand from moving and watching the pointer at the same time is a pain for me.

I read that, too, Gary.  I think he likes the beam type because they're more likely to stay in calibration.

Subject: torque wrenches?

Jacob noted he lacked a torque wrench. They are a good investment so I say just buy one. :)

Which one? I think I read in Mopar Action that Richard Ehrenberg only will use a beam style torque wrench. Can't recall why he wrote that though. Anyone?

Thanks,
Gary H.
