3/4" Torque Wrench sale

I just spotted this on WOOT.com (Amazon).
Good price for a 3/4" torque wrench. Plenty good for a lug nut torque wrench.

That is a good price. I hate using mine because its a lot of work. Torque multiplier starting to make more sense to me any more. Still a lot of work regardless

You still need a few other things to do the tires yourself. The stand for holding the wrench is priceless to me.

I always use a short jack stand to support the wrench. Up to now I used a 1/2" torque wrench with a 2' bar attached to calculate the correct torque, roughly. It will be nice to have a dedicated torque wrench just for the wheels.

I use a SnapOn four to one gear reduction torque multiplier and a 1/2 torque wrench.  Not the easiest set up, a dedicated 3/4" drive single torque wrench would be much easier.

I use a 475 lb.ft. torque stick on a 3/4 I/R pneumatic impact wrench.  I also have the torque wrench from the first post of this thread and for the most part it agrees with the tightness of the torque stick.  The torque wrench is a beast and helped me complete my shocks, airbags, brake service and of course complete wheel removal.  I believe it would work fine off of the coach air on the side of the road but I might have to let the compressor catch up once in a while.  I covet Scott's Milwaukee cordless impact but I picked mine up off of eBay for $75.  I also have a 40" 3/4 breaker bar but have not needed to resort to that.

I use this:
NEIKO 20743A 3/4" Drive Digital Torque Adapter | 150-750 Foot-Pound |...

I purchased that unit last year but didn't need it since John 44 had a decent torque wrench when we did my rear brakes.
I am considering heavily buying that torque wrench.
Don't plan on taking the wheels off again anytime soon but then again you never know.
I broke a 3/4 in Chinese breaker bar. The new one I have not used yet but is  much better quality.
