If you want to know the extra tools I had to buy for this build so far.
1. 32mm socket, 6 point. Harbor Freight
2. 24mm socket, 6 point. Lowes
3. 1/2” Quinn Digital Torque Adapter. Harbor Freight
4. Impact Socket Adapter Set, 3 Piece. Harbor Freight. I got this a long time ago it was pretty much a 1/2” adapter set of I recall, black.
5. High Visibility Socket Adapter Set, 4 Piece. The shiny chrome vanadium ones.
6. 1/2” breaker bar. Harbor Freight
7. Motorcycle combination axle hex tool. Amazon
That rounded out my socket set and my wrench set and let me adapt a lot of my existing sockets to the Quinn 1/2” Torque Adapter and 1/2” breaker bar.
My socket set maxes out on metric around 19mm and 7/8 on SAE so I needed to get a couple new sockets. Digital torque adapter is a must. I’m done with the mechanic torque wrenches as these digital ones certify more tolerant and don’t drift as fast as mechanical ones. The 1/2” will allow set alarms between 25 foot pounds a 250 foot pounds. It will cycle display through about six different standards but the most useful ones for me at foot pounds, inch pounds and newton meters. For anything below 25 foot pounds I just use the display and stop torquing when my target value has been reached.
