HF Torque Limiting Impact Adapter Set

[darkwingbenny]

Picked these up at HF on clearance for $6.37. http://www.harborfreightusa.com/usa/itemdisplay/displayItem.do?itemid=96847&submit2=find+it

Figured I'd give it a shot for the price. Anyone have experience with this item or similar from other manufacturers?

Thanks

Worthless. Snug them up with the impact (unless you're a complete tard you can't screw this up), then get the torque wrench and torque them properly.

It states in the ad that a torque wrench is need for final tightening. Why bother with these? Seems like an extra step to me.

Yeah, newer (read thinner) rotors will warp if the torque is not even. I purposly bought a HF torque wrench that I use just for putting tires back on. I didn't want to always use my good wrench anf the HF is good enough (maybe even better than good enough) to assure equal torque on each nut. I just buzz the nuts down with the inpact until they touch and then torque. I don't feel torquing is overkill at all-I feel it's a neccesity.
