I want 2 in different ranges. Any recomendations for decent torque wrenches? Are clickers really better than beams? I have a cheapass autozone clicker right now, but I don't trust it.

If you want to do ring and pinion setups get a nice 1/4 beam with a finger ring handle - they are perfect for this.
A good beam is a great torque wrench. The clickers can go out of calibration - you really have to f-up a beam to take it out of calibration. No I don't know where to get a nice 1/4" torque wrench. |
