Om confused STL, i thought u said 7.5 lb? 89 ft lb would make more sense as the majority of torque wrenches cover 20 - 100 ft lb.

89 inch pounds not foot pounds. 89 lb-in=7.5 lb-ft

Not having much luck finding the right type of Torue wrench thats not "Overkill" for the job on the Net.

Any of you guys have a Make/Part # i should look into? Do you think i can walk into SEARS/Home depot and they would stock them?

I think my problem was that i assumed the 20 - 250 was in Ft Lbs but they are actually lbs in. $70 bux is reasonable.

I hear that! Anytime i do work with Snap on tools im shocked at what a difference it makes, as opposed to your vanillla made in China sets.

Most of my Tools are junky hand me downs, its time to start collecting a decent set.

I have a combination of Craftsman and Channellock tools with a few Stanley hammers and screwdrivers sprinkled in.
