Is this accurate? Torque Specs

[Craw]

I have been looking into buying a torque wrench and wanted to know if I needed up to 150 or 250 pounds, well going to go with the 250 because it is 13 bucks more , whatever. Are the below measurements accurate? I compared the Lug Nuts bit and it seems to be accurate. Just curious.

I would check with the person who posted the specs or independently verify them with a service manual.

 

[BWL]

That's a lot to check, but if it turns out they're accurate this will be a thread worth saving for future reference.

 

[Craw]

Anyone have a manual laying around lol

 

[Malarkus]

Taking the extended lack of response as a no?

To the OP, I would go with the 150# wrench. You'll have very little use for the upper end of the 250# one and loose a substantial amount of you're lower end torque values. I've got an inch pound and a 150# and can't ever recall needing or wanting anything else. I'm not saying you will never need the 250# one, however you'll have very little if any use for it.

The money is a good reason for going with a bigger wrench, heres another, I was told never max out your wrench. I see one spec there is for 129 lbs. Not max but getting there. There may also other bolts pretty tight, I think pinion nuts can be high torque at times. I had an axle nut on my Subaru called for 149. I bought the big wrench for that. Although Ramnewbie has a good point, the lower end would be of great concern. I know you may not can afford both but i had no choice. So may want to get the 150 and wait until you really need the 250 like i did.
