Latest Nashbar catalog has a "MIT Mechanics" 1/4" drive torque wrench on sale for $69.95, marked down from $99.95.
It is the exact same wrench you can pick up at Harbor Freight for about $20. I hope no one has been taken in. :mad:

yeah, get the Harbor Freight. Lots of people have checked HF calibrationsand they are sometimes better than their pro quality ones.

Thanks for the tip. Not sure I will go for the torque wrench, but they have a ton of other tools and stuff for way cheap.

Hm. The title you used worked for me...the "tip" I was talking about was Harbor Freight -- I hadn't heard of them before. I picked up a grease gun for $6. It's the same as the Pedros one which goes for $25 from Nashbar...$20 "on sale", LOL.

I've always wondered. I paid $14 for what appears to be the same product from Fleet Farm. Not sure it's even worth that.
I dunno. Mine seems to work okay. The click isn't very positive, but it's better than nothing.
'nother, I wasn't replying to you, but bumping the thread to be sure others saw it.
