Autozone torque wrench
Anyone rent one of these from autozone before or know how accurate they are? The one I'm using only goes up to 150. I need one for 181 ft/lb but rather not buy one and only use it once.

I used to work there. As far as accurate not sure. We don't calibrate them. And yeah only up to 150 we didn't have any that went higher. Unless you buy one we can special order it from a tool catalog.

181ft/lb is that the crankshaft pulley or the axle nut?
edit: nevermind just read that you have a 150ft/lb calibration. Just max out your current torque wrench and give it an extra 1/4th turn with a breaker bar. It'll be a tad over 200ft/lb but safely over 180.

This is what I did lol

What is it you're working on that requires 181ft/lb?
If it's the axle nut, you want to go substantially higher than the recommended torque setting as prescribed by the TSB. I personally went over 250ft/lb (probably 300+)

Fremont/UC area. Won't need it for a week or 2, need to help clean up my cousins garage so we can work on it inside while it rains.
Autozone lists a 30-250ft/lb 1/2in drive on their website under rent a tool but I guess not all stores carry them.
