Any recommends for a torque wrench the owner's manual calls for. We jab a 2015 11fk.
Thx,

Read some reviews, there are many wrenches available.
If you are doing precision work go for a high dollar wrench, for lug nuts only I think a lesser priced tool would be ok.
Far better than the local tire shop and their impact wrench.
Craftsman would be a decent choice without breaking the bank. Although they don't offer the lifetime warranty on torque wrenches.
Whatever brand you decide on, I would suggest a clicker style with a longish handle
Yes, we have one of the Craftsmen "clicker style" long-handled torque wrenches. It works well. You just dial up the amount of torque desired by turning the handle, and then use it. It makes a clicking noise once you've achieved the desired tightness. Then be sure to unwind the spring when finished by turning the handle back the other way until it stops, otherwise you will wreck the spring (and the wrench) by storing with tension on the spring. You'll have to check with someone (your dealer or the factory) to see what amount of torque you're supposed to use on your trailer's lug nuts. Our 21BHS requires 120 lbs/ft, but I think it varies depending on which model of trailer you have and what kind of wheels are on it. Lastly, if you decide to buy the Craftsmen clicker style torque wrench, look for it to go on sale. I got ours for $39.99 on sale but the regular price was somewhere around $70.
