Sears? Kmart which sells Craftsman?
Autozone which sells whatever brand they sell?

You want an inch pound wrench, not a foot pound wrench.
Two completely different animals.

If in MD we have one in the MD chapter#33 cave to use.
We are getting together this Saturday for some injectors and wheel bearing installs.

I'm in MS. I've tried Autozone, Advance, and O'reiley's. They have them for the 120 - 900 inch pound range, but not for 72 inch pounds. I'll try Sears.

For my regular LB torque wrenches I bought quality...

For the inch pound and pans I bought one for 20.00 at harbor freight.. If I am going to do something vritical I just borrow my cousins Snap-on.

You'll be looking for a 1/4 inch drive wrench and it shouldn't be much longer than 14"s in length.. Alot of them come in Newton/Meter and Lb/Ft. Just remember, there are 12 inch pounds per foot pound..
