    Watch your hardware store for sales if you don't need the stuff right away.

    I managed to pick up a ft-lbs and in-lbs torque wrench for the price of one.

    Lifetime warranties make life easier as well.

    I happened to need my big torque wrench for another, non car related project, so it couldn't wait. Or else I would have bought a $15 one from Harbor Freight.

    DON'T. You will get a better deal with the solus pro which is far superior. Troubleshooter is a godsent. If you want I can check with snappy and see if you can buy my solus pro I traded off last year

    I have a craftsman set at home. Snap on just fits a little snugger and is stronger for when I beat the hell out of them at work.
