One thing to keep in mind is the range of the tool is also important. A 600 in-lb was not the the best choice for this job. These tools are not as accurate on the first 20% of the scale as the last 80%. With that said you want to try to pick a torque wrench that is close to the number you are going to torque to. So if you were looking for 20 in-lbs a 50 in-lb wrench would be a better choice than a 600 in-lb because the 600 in-lb will not be as accurate from 0 to 120. Many people think one torque wrench does it all but the fact is you need many of them for the best results if you are working on a wide range of torque. In fact the lower the torque numbers like under 12 FT-LBs requires more tools than higher ranges. Low torque applications are critical and require high quality tools like the CDI or Snap-on version.
readouts are too large... dana 80 which is in one ton trucks requires only 10 in lbs of torque on the pinion nut to rotate pinion. you would barely be able to read it on that thing
Amazing video danny thanks for sharing.
Great video good information thank you 😊 👍
I have read that Torque measure tools should not be used( are less accurate) to measure less than %20 of their capacity.
So a 600 inch pound tool should not be used less than 100 or so inch pounds.
So a 50 inch pound tool would give better accuracy when measuring 20 inch pound.
Awesome!
wow that's a really cool tool to have
Cool video
Hey great info. Hey, am I better with a NM wrench or Inch pounds wrench when doing a pinion pre load test?
Either scale works as long as you’re following the torque spec. The only disadvantage of this one was 20 inch pounds barely registers, so you may want one with a smaller range scale
Hello, I have a old Mercedes w124 which I replaced the steering gear box with a rebuilt one but nobody told me about the friction torque not been done. The instruction only says centering the gear box before installing. Then it was installed but steering is heavy. I manually adjusted it with the adjustment screw but I was never satisfied with the steering. MB w124 manual has a friction torque specs but the tool is not available to buy anywhere. Can this be used mounting it on the steering wheel and measuring it from there without removing the gear box out of the car? I read about removing the steering wheel airbag and connecting a socket were you can attach the torque wrench. Then you center the wheel and turn the torque wrench to measure it. Do you have experience regards to this? Thanks
It depends. As you saw in the video with the pinion gear, that must be done without any other components installed for an accurate reading. If the steering box has a torque measurement installed, then it might work for you
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I also had to jack the front end and remove the pitman arm to adjust the screw. Done it 2-3 time without measuring it loosen and tighten the lock nut and test drive. Cost me 2 wheel alignment every time I touch the screw. This time I have a spec of 110-160 ncm when I test turn the wheel. Hope this works. I will only spend $160 for wheell alignment and buying this tool
MB manual says 110-160 ncm or 9 to 14 inch lbs for a steering gear box force from the center. What do you think? This is supposed to be done in the car while the pitman arm is disconnected and rotate the torque wrench on top of the steering wheel with a special adapter. I watch you torque 20-25 inch lbs on that bearing. You think my numbers is right? I don't know how a inch-lbs or ncm feels like. I need to order the one you have first. I'm used to the Foot lbs which clicks to tell you the torque
You’ll feel the resistance. It’s about the same as my rating of 20 inch pounds. That’s enough to feel as you see we turn the pinion by hand and it doesn’t freewheel, but stops on its own
How’s the Denali? Any summertime camping /exploring vids?
