    I work all the time. Its Boating Season. When I git off work, I git out of the 100* weather and go in the airconditioned house, take a shower. Eat , drink a couple Brewski's and take a nap.
    On Saturday the OL wants to go for a ride. We leave early, go and eat somewhere and come home by around 12:00 to git out of the 100* weather.
    You don't ride no more on the weekends.
    And my gas can is empty redneck. Not even gas for the lawnmower.
    I can buy Redneck Budweiser or gas for the lawnmower, Guess which I git.:rant:

    Na, I pulled the wheels off my little cargo trailer yesterday and repacked the wheel bearings and used my 1/2 Mac Tools air wrench. Torqued em just right, tight :D. Getting reading for the trip to the Wall leaving July 30th.
    I got a good 1/2 drive clicker and a 1/4 drive inch pound clicker. No need to put another one in the tool box. But if I was looking for one that would be a good choice. :)

    Who needs 'em! Just tighten until it starts get hard to turn then go a little more until it starts to turn easy then stop. Wa La!
    Seriously, that is a very good Torque Wrench for the money.
