Torque Wrench Set

Hey guys,

I am confused on what torque wrenches I should get. I know there are different driver sizes (1/4,1/2,3/8) but everywhere I look they are sold separately. So my question is there a torque wrench set that has all of them? Any recommened brands? I don't want to pay a ton but i'm not too cheap either.

A 3/8" drives should be fine for most stuff you'd need to do - you can use socket adapters when necessary. You'll want an inch-lbs torque wrench and a ft-lbs torque wrench.

Snap on / CDI. the craftsmen ones from Sears are ok for a little while but won't hold up to regular use...plus they are no longer made in the US which was their big selling point.

Thank you bigc. I ended up buying a snap-on 10-100 ft lbs.
