I need to retorque/check the headbolts of my "korean 4y" (commercial auto).
Does anybody in the pta area know of a good quality torque wrench I can buy, or does anybody have one I can use for a short while?
Thank you
Evert

Re: Torque wrench needed
Evert... that's like asking a father if you can borrow his daughter for a bit... sies... skande... 
Most guys buy something like a Gedore, AmPro, King Tony or better... and would rather borrow you there daughter than the holy torque wrench!
I got my one 2nd hand at a local Cash Crusaders... tested it against a Gedore, and it does the job perfectly!

Hi Evert
As jy in doornpoort bly of naby is, hier is n tool plek "just tools". Ek het twee weke terug n torque wrench daar gekoop. Dink dit was R400.
Weet nie van die gehalte nie, maar gebruik n torque wrench een keer in hoeveel jaar.
Groete

Having a 12 second Honda is just like coming out of the closet; You're going to surprise a bunch of people, but in the end you're still gay.
