I bought a snap on crows foot and it didn't really work that great. I was thinking of buying the longest box end wrench and welding an extender on it if I have to. What tool did you guys find the easiest to slowly creep up on the stretch point?




doesn't the torque values totally change using extensions like that.




I wasn't worried about a torque value. I was going to the recommended stretch number. I am just throwing this out there to see what other are using. When you are dealing with approximately 82-87 foot pounds its not real easy when using a stretch gauge on final assembly. I love my snap-on digital torque wrench but I know its really not the proper tool for the job. That is why I finally bought a stretch gauge a few years ago and have since found out why they recommend using one.
