I've notice a lot of the smaller bolts need to be torqued in in/lbs, not ft/lbs. I've got a couple of nice ft/lb torque wrenches but nothing calibrated in in/lbs and I got sticker shock looking at Snap On, NAPA, and Sears (my local Home Depot didn't have any - or care that they didn't for that matter). When I found them they were over $200 - Harbor Freight has one on sale for 17.99 but I'm leary of it. While the price is great I'm wondering how good the accuracy is - especially since my behind will be flying the bird. Even on e-Bay the name brand items are selling for over $100. Is there a more affordable alternative that's accurate or do I need to bite the bullet and fork over the $$$?
