I bought the same one, but a size or two up. The lug nuts/bolts should be torqued to 88-92 foot-pounds.Originally Posted by Alikessu
Sears has a sales on the Torque wrenches, just picked this up for $39.99
goes from 10lb to 75lb
that should be enough for any Project right?

I read somewhere around 210 in a bunch of places (don't remember the exact number). Too much preload will kill the bearings. 300 seems way overkill.
On topic, I have a 1/2" Snap-On, but it only goes down to 50 ft/lbs. Never really needed anything lower than that in my Jeep days. I bought a 3/8" HF, way off. It sits in my tool box.
My buddy has a 3/8" Snap-On that goes very low in in/lbs, super nice. Vibrates when you get close to your specified torque, and shows where you're actually at on the digital readout. Also the exact opposite price-wise from the HF stuff.

The set number of ft lbs vs a range.

Ok. Typically one should shoot for 50% to 90% torque of the range.
For instance, if I try to torque something to 20 ft-lbs using a 0-100 ft-lb torque wrench.....no bueno.
