Wisconsin people torque their headlight bulbs....after they learn how to change them? That was unfair to a lot of good sledders I know in WI. Sorry. And yeah, I prefer not to strip clutching bolts if I can help it....I hear they may be important. 11 minutes ago, Momorider said: I think you need a better memory, you are going senile forget who you lent it to Oh...I'm fucking losing it.

That doesn't always work I need a torque wrench that goes to 405ft#s Buddy of mine from work has a buddy who owns a shop that's gonna let me borrow his. Only need it for 2 bolts, so I sure as fuck ain't going out and buying one. We have some here at the shop, but I need it for my truck, so does me no good.

Woodtick Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Torque wrenches are on the list of tools I don't loan out. Motor megers,chain saws,large Hammer drill bits,snowmobiles, micrometers, refractometer,etc. If said friend owns one and it is on another job or is out for repair,I will take exception.

Be careful you don't bend the frame on the Raptor if you are doing a true 405 foot pounds. Edited September 30, 2017 by Woodtick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriftBusta Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I barely use the one I got. And 94.3% of the time I use the Bussman institute standard. Over the years, I've learned to calibrate it to a very high level of precision tightness before the stud snap sclean off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad has them in his basement, along with his tools. They'll all be mine when he's gone.

We use to be able to but it's hard these days.
