Blows! How f#%ed up is that! When you walked out did you have the giggle of disbelief? I'd get something cool to offset the bad luck.

[QUOTE=dboyzalter;10658946]I got a torque wrench for like $10 at harbor freight. I wouldn't use it to put together an engine but it works fine for the lug nuts.
A cheap Torque wrench or one that hasn't been recently calibrated is also known as a "Guessin' Stick". Just don't use an impact gun and you'll be fine. Never buy anything at Harbor Freight if accuracy, precision, or complexity is involved. HF does sell a decent Sledge Hammer however.

Its true
but I tighten with my breaker bar and go use my guessin stick to get them around 85 ft lbs... I have their $20 saw zall and must say it's worth every penny. And I have their demolition hammer drill that has proven itself very helpful on more then one occasion... I buy their stuff not expecting much and usually im happy with it... When it brakes I just get another. I have good tools too but sometimes when you know your going to be abusing things you would rather use some garbage.
