Me , I just use a cheater pipe on a flex handle (often mis named a 'breaker bar') and put both feet up against the chassis or wheel then pull for all I'm worth , this is how all my new spring bolts got tightened and not a one loose yet.... -Nate Robert wrote: > > I just got a sway bar based on the discussions regarding one. My issue is that a bracket needs to go on the spring U-bolts and on my 3/4 ton they are torqued to something like 215 ft lbs. I have a sears 1/2 inch drive "clicker" torque wrench but I an't got the butt to pull that kinda G-force. Would I throw the accuracy off if I put a "persuader" (piece of pipe) over the handle to give me a bit more leverage or is its accuracy dependent on the force at the right length from the head? > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!
