Bought Kobalt Torque Wrench!
After my friends problems with tire's, I decided to buy a torque wrench. I went to Lowes and purchased a Kobalt Wrench. $83.00 with lifetime warranty. Yes not one year but lifetime. Kobolds had good reviews, and appears to be a step above other units with 250 lb max. I (because I am not a mechanic) went to my RV repair facility and got a lesson on its proper usage and storage. I know it's long overdue, but I bought it . I have always pulled into tires shops and had lug nuts checked. Funny thing is during my course on usage, we found several lug nuts were not properly tightened. I feel it's one more way to become self reliant! Maybe it's normal, but mine came with certificate of calibration. My tire guys tested it and said it was spot on! Thanks MOC members for education on this subject!
