Need to borrow a torque wrench

Post by UNIMOG-GUY »

I need to borrow a torque wrench that goes up to 120 lbs. I'm putting the wheel spacers and H1 rims and tires on my CUCV and need to torque them to 120 lbs. The craftsman torque wrench I have only goes up to 80 lbs.

I only need to borrow it for 2 hrs. I'd be happy to leave mine with you to ease any concerns about not getting yours back.


Thanks in advance,

Chris

Just apply 120lbs of pressure 1ft out on a breaker bar :mrgreen:

I had to torque something to like 170 and I weigh 135ish so I just stood on the wrench about 1' 3" out from the end :idea:

It can't type or speak. But it can math?
