I made up a double ended female square drive adapter that allowed me to
couple tow torque wrenches together so I could verify my click wrench.
I borrowed a good dial type wrench and found the click to be pretty close.
I have a 300 ft/lb dial wrench that I used on VW rear axle and flywheel
bolts/nuts. The rest of the time it just sits there looking pretty! I
didn't have any way to calibrate it, but suspect that it could stand a
check.
peace,
Pat
