I haven't really used it for 6+ years (been outta the car game a long time); but I checked it on lugs and other random supension bolts and it seems to work very well still. Idk if I should get a new one.

Recommendations welcome.

I notice there's all these new electronic ones, like Craftsman, etc. Those electronic ones any good, and do those always stay in-calibration?

fyi, just noticed HF has a coupon for torque wrenches right now. 12 dollars each for any mechanical one. limit up to 8. could pick up a whole set for cheaper than you can buy one from other places.


coupon code is: 39674432
