    torque wrench

    bit of a random one. But i havent got a torque wrench at the mo, and its one of the only things i want for my bday really from the missus. Im not doing much work on cars lately just think it will be handy to have one.

    Not sure which one to get looking at the halfords ones. Obviously different nm ratings one is 8nm-60 the other is 40-200

    so the question is which one do you think i would generally need to use more? Untill i get the other one. If i ever. Im leaning toward the higher rated one. Thanks for ya input

    Also go for a decent branded version, halford pro range is good aswell never had prob's with them. I have just got myself a nice Snap on TECH3FR250 as a couple of my halfords pro trque wrenches got stolen and the Snap on covers both the stolen torque wrenches range's.

    Re: torque wrench

    we use norbar torque wrenches at work, never had a problem with them, and they take a fair bit of abuse.
