I've discovered that my torque wrench only goes up to 160 ft lbs. I need another 50 ft lbs to lock up the rear drive shafts into the wheel bearing hub.
I have an angle gauge and was wondering if it is possible to convert the remaining 50 ft lbs into degrees for the angle gauge? |

3/4'' drive is the only way to go,I've snapped a 1/2'' breaker bar on my super Beetle years ago, seem to remember they were 217ft/lbs.
Can you buy a large capacity torque wrench in 1/2'' ? Ive never seen one. |
