Hi Guys

I'm scrounging on the cheap i need some stuff as the Z now resides in my own Garage.

1/2 Torque Wrench or (Possibly 3/8 Torque Wrench if it can do 100 Nm ) - Don't mind something that needs re calibrated as long as it works good.

Medium/Large Trolly Jack

Don't mind something old or shagged that needs a rebuild, the older type with a long handle and a solid body would do me fine.

I'm not really interested in borrowing these from people as they are essentials and i really need my own.

I don't have much budget for this stuff but tell me what you got.

I'll have dig around at work for a torque wrench for you, are you worried about what it goes down to and if the ratchet works?

Mr Jacks might be worth a ring to see if he's got any old trolley jacks lying around?

If the ratchet works it would be a bonus, not to worried how low it goes the 1/2 Wrench's typically do from 30nm to 150nm don't they ?

Mr Jacks, cool .I had no idea such a company existed.

40 - 200Nm typically, 30 - 150Ftlb. ISO standard states they shouldn't go below 20% of the full scale reading so that's a good way of telling a decent wrench, but that's for another thread

I'll see what I can dig up, we have a pile of condemned wrenches at work but most of them have rooted ratchets.

Cheers man,anything that works really , if it holds its accuracy and can do up a bolt i would be mega stoked.

I'm all keen for picking stuff to bits and fixing stuff too.

I can build and calibrate a Norbar Professional 200 wrench with a Sidchrome ratchet head if you're keen?
