I would expect to receive nothing more than 20 studs and 4 actual 5mm spacers. Is that not the case? |

Some of the larger spacer kits are the bolt-on spacer type, which is why I think those other spacers are in the photo.

What's wrong with SR48? Mine worked fine and are definitely not made of aluminium.
My 3/8" Milwaukee fuel started losing power after a year and started to suck at removing/installing lugs. I use the half inch with a torque stick now.

Since we change wheels so damn often at the track, I've been thinking about getting a 80 or 90 ft/lb torque stick to use with my 1/2" milwaukee impact. What torque stick do you use?
I was thinking about buying a kit like this https://www.amazon.com/Astro-78810-1...gateway&sr=8-3 edit: also want to add that I've been using/racing on the SR48s all year, they're steel. Wheels have probably been on/off the car ~100 times this year. They're a little worse for wear, but I'm abusive to my lugnuts.

I have a Milwaukee 1/2 mid-torque. I can hammer away in setting 1 without torquing past 90 ft-lbs (I use a torque wrench as a the final step). I've become an inpatient rebel though and tighten with setting 2 now... Just don't hammer it for long, and it will still be under 90 ft-lbs.

I was never planning on replacing the torque wrench for final torque - unless the circumstances necessitated it. However I wanted to zip on my lugs with my big impact without worrying about over-torque and without the need the use a 3/8ths gun. Always looking to simplify how I do things at the track.
The other scenario is the threat of rain before a race, with a torque stick I could be strapped in the car with it still up on jacks while we wait until the last possible second to put on rains or drys. When you're up against the clock like that, a crew guy with a 90 ft/lb torque stick on a big gun could come in handy. Or during enduros when you have to change a tire(s) in hot pits during a pit stop... SUPER handy in that scenario!
