Then again, I never wrench outside of my garage 
Still looking for a decent and cheap torque wrench for tranny/bottom end work --- have been eyeing this for awhile: Neiko 3/8-Inch 10-80 Foot-Pounds Automatic Torque Wrench - Amazon.com
$30 and over 100 positive reviews? Means it must be good .. or the vast majority of people reviewing it are ruh-tards |
Looks like your average cheapo click torque wrench to me. Got one years ago that looks almost identical for $20.
I'm sure it does the job though.
I suggest just getting one locally from kmstools since it's on sale at the moment. eFlyer : KMS Tools & Equipment from Vancouver BC, Largest selection of tools in Canada | |

^I have the Ridgid multi-tool and all the attachment heads, including the ratchet and the angle impact. Got both the 12V (like the Milwaukee) and the 18V versions. If I could buy JUST the 120V and air power units I would too, but they only sell them with the multi-tool head, and I have two of those already.   
Nice set... also have a jigsaw and recip saw head for it.

^ How long does your battery last? Mine's started to only last ~20 mins of use with various attachments...

I thought about buying the Rigid tool just for the ratchet head, but the reviews for the 12V one are pretty negative.
The 18V one seems better, but the size of the thing is pretty big, would be kinda hard for 1 hand operation. The whole point for me to use the ratchet is to get into tight spaces, and the fact that it is compact and light weight makes it easy to use.

I've got one of those. Got it cheaper up here in Canada via Amazon.ca. than eBay or Amazon.com. It was a clearance item. I bought two of htem. One for work and one for home. Once in a while you come across a deal you cannot pass up. It is the 3/8 inch version. Came with battery, charger, 3/8 to 1/4 inch adapter, and soft case.

I have something like 8 of the 12V batteries though, and three chargers, so I'm well stocked  Quote:

The whole point for me to use the ratchet is to get into tight spaces, and the fact that it is compact and light weight makes it easy to use. | It's pretty solid... honestly, I haven't used the ratchet head a lot (I have a $20 Power Fist air ratchet that I use more often, because the Ridgid set normally stays in my work van), but some of the other heads are far more useful. I use the jigsaw fairly regularly, and the right-angle impact and drill have been lifesavers more than once. Never actually used the nail driver head, but I bought it because it was on clearance for $11
On the 18V, the handle itself is the same size right back to the battery holder, so it's not that much worse for tight spaces. It's a bit leaner with the 2Ah battery, too. 
Nice thing with Ridgid is the lifetime warranty on the batteries.
Another neat thing I discovered with these heads: they also fit the Ryobi ONE+ multi-tool power unit (my buddy is fully stocked up on the Ryobi tools).
And of course, Ridgid has the 120V and air-powered multi-tool units too.

i use a dewalt 20v impact driver with a 1/4" or 3/8" socket adaptor for fast removal and tightening of bolts. but it basically useless in tight spaces.

I registered my Ridgid compound mitre, table saw, oscilating sander all on-line. I have all the UPC labels from the boxes cut out and saved and stored with the manuals. Right now, I have an 18 volt Ridgid drill that has a chuck that malfunctions once in a while. Too lazy to get it looked at, but it would be interesting to see how much of a hassle it would be to get it replaced under warranty.
