    As a nerd, call it lb/ft (pound force foot) and not ft/lb. Torque is measured in force per radius. The metric guys always have it right, and you’ll never see them call it meter newtons :)

    I know you’re right but I can never remember which is correct and I don’t care enough to look it up each time.

    For now yes, I'm too broke to afford 8" coilovers right now. Before KOH I'm looking to run some big boy bypasses too

    Same here with the 4.0. This Torque wrench sounds cheaper than supercharger.

    Off-topic, but does anyone have any good ground tent recommendations?

    I’d like to stay around the $200 mark with my budget. 300 would be doable.

    My top contender right now is the gazelle T3X. Coleman instant set up as a low-priced fallback, but it seems like it would get pretty muggy and hot and it’s pretty basic as far as design.

    Easy set up is a nice perk but not must.

    The gazelle is really nice, a ton of usable space with the downside being it’s so long while broken down.
