[quote=lovehamr;1200337]I might not have to point it out but you're not going to be getting 350# out of your normal 1/2 torque wrench either.

I just looked at the web sight and noticed that they sell torque wrenches as well................................. that only go to 250#.


I was wondering about that too. They probably need a 3/4 drive breakover bar to work with that thing. I use Sears long 1/2' breakover bar to loosen lug nuts on my pickup that I put on with a torque wrench (90 ft lbs) and it takes a little effort even with that long bar to bust them loose. Trying to loosen a spinner with nearly 4 times that much installation torque - I'm going to want about 3 ft of bar - minimum.
