    Torque wrench question.

    When using a crowsfoot flare nut adapter on a torque wrench, is there a correction factor to account for the additional length of the adapter? If so, what is the correction proceedure? Thanks.

    Opinions on Toptul.

    Came across some Toptul sets for sale on the internet. They look pretty nice, but the fact that they are half the price of a similar set in SK or Craftsman kinda sets off the alarm bell. I know they have been discussed here before, but the threads allways seem to be a "I just got this and it...
