Picked one last week

Thats not a torque wrench thats just a regular socket set.

I use this one

Sears and autozone also carry them.

 

[Silent_Chaos]

Really? I thought they're the same.

Isnt it the same concept??

 

[rcspeedmart]

No you can not adjust the amount of torque that is applied with that set.

 

[Silent_Chaos]

Oh i see. I will add this to my tools

Just checked that site, didn't know they were that expensive.

Why not just use loc-tite and "feel" the screw/bolt when you are tightening it? I appreciate the tool with 1/1 cars, but I don't see a real use for it with r/c cars.

 

[rcspeedmart]

when you are working on the engine or rebuilding your engine you will want to torque the bolts correct or there will be problems.

 

[rampage idiot]

Yep! BIG problems!

 

[rcspeedmart]

LOL please tell them we know you know LOL!!!!!!

 

[KrashKrieg]

Yep! BIG problems!

? Not really, I rebuilt my stocker with head kit and crank...no torque wrench.

(And I even own an old fashion bar type 1/4" drive that measures in/lbs)

Put few gallons on it and never an issue.

Torque wrench is nice but cost vs times you use it, and benefit on these engines its entirely unnecessary.
