Short torque wrench

[David]

Can anyone recommend a short torque wrench (3/8 drive) ? I have a few that are just too long to use under the car. Prefer something not made in China (if that's still possible).

Thanks

What are trying to tighten? Also, your Inbox is full, I couldn't reply to you.

I have a Snap on one that is quite short. Has a dial gauge. As I recall it only goes to about 25 foot pounds.

Working on control arms so I need about 100ft lbs. Cleaned out my mailbox a bit so I can accept PMs again.

You should be able to use a standard torque wrench with long handle there.

It's not for an E9. My long wrenches are just too long with the car only a foot or so off the ground.

For those bolts I use long extensions to get the wrench out from under the car. They flex a bit so I set the torque at the top of the range or a bit over.
