CT also has the old style torqers for $24. They come in 3/8 or 1/2" drive. They have the scale with a needle and you just read the scale untill you stop, a bit different than setting and letting it click but does the same purpose.

Egh, I thought I replyed to this thread.
Don't buy a used one, you don't know how well it's been taken car of.
Torque wrenches go out ofter a while esp if not take care of properly, when you store it you need to release the spring by loosening it all the way.
I suggest saving up and wait for when they go on sale you can ask a manager at Can tire when the wrench is going on sale and they'll be able to look it up for you.

Just borrow one. I'll let you borrow mine. PM me if you want it...
Canadian Tire sometimes doesn't allow returns on open products

I'm gonna ask around at my school and see if I can borrow one from the auto service classes or something. My neighbour is also a mechanic full time, so I might have some luck there.
I really want to buy one though, because I'm doing my shocks right now, and within the next month or so, I need to put in my springs. Plus my friends want to put in their coilovers, springs, etc.
If you guys could suggest a good type of torque wrench, what would one be?
