    Care to let a 5 yr old come and see them closer than she can at the zoo :anonymous:. How many head do you have. I can imagine they need quite a bit more roaming area than a normal cow.

    I’m really hoping they put up a good fight against the rams on Sunday! I just hope it’s not a blowout of a game!

    Would you trust a Harbor Freight torque wrench? I might get myself one for Christmas.

    No. There are good quality ones on Ebay that are budget friendly that I would trust a lot more.

    Lowe’s has some awesome deals lately.

    That’s where I’ve gotten an ass of tools lately

    Yes I would.

    Hot rod magazine did a shootout and found they're actually pretty accurate considering they aren't certified.

    If you're that concerned, get their digital unit. It clips onto a breaker bar and is quite accurate.

    Now, does anyone know how to change the bulb in a 97 high mount stoplight? I gave to wonder if the PO glued it on. Took the screws out and did all sorts of prying. No joy.

    Btw, I also built a solid axle suspension system, two axles, a transmission and an engine in my 89 S10 project. Also installed suspension systems on 3 jeeps and multiple other things. I've NEVER had a problem with backout. This tells me that it's doing the job right.

    Again, if you want even more accuracy, get the digital unit. its 30 bucks and a digital strain gauge will always be more durable and accurate than a mechanical unit.

    I think Lowes is clearing out most Kobalt hand tools now that they are carrying Craftsman "brand".

    Yup.

    Guess where craftsman tools are made now? That's right. China.

    Btw...harbor freight hand tools now have a lifetime warranty as well.

    Welcome to the club. Just did the same thing but it was $1,700 for one side since it decided to fail while I was driving.
    Got mine from HF, still going strong.

    Ive got one of each size they make. They work fine for my needs. Like someone else said, we are not building rocketships here. In range +/- 5 ft/lbs is close enough for me.
