inch pound torque wrench

[dan40]

I am planning on re-gearing in the near future and I was just wondering if you guys knew where I could rent a good in/lb torque wrench? or if you guys would be willing to rent one to me? This is a one time use tool for me, and I probably wont be using it again.
Thanks

Check Autozone. They loan tools free and I know they have Ft lb torque wrenches.

Autozone does not carry an inch pound torque wrench. I bought mine from a tool shop. I believe it was $40. If not amazon carries some about the same price. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/B000NVCI1U/?tag=959media-20

I was looking at those on amazon, my buddy told me that these may be too long, do you have any idea?

They're 20.5 inches long.

OR......hold the wrench with only your thumb & forefinger--then tighten bolts...

but more seriously...buy one from Harbor Freight Tools...they're really cheap for 1-time use....maybe even twice...mine is 5 years old (used it 3 times already....who woulda thought!)

I bought a good Craftsmans years ago, no idea of the cost. 3/8" drive and 13" long. It'll last longer than I'm going to be around.

unlike most craftsmen hand tools that have a lifetime warranty torque wrenchs only have a 1 yr warranty
