Not fair, I have to put the Volvo on top of the gearbox to hold it whilst trying to stand on the very end of the torque wrench. When you have a 15" torque wrench and only weigh 9 1/2 stone it's a real pig trying to torque it up to 150ft lbs! Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

get a bit of scaffold tube and extend your torque wrench with it, increases your mechanical advantage making it eaiser for you, ie doubble the length half the force needed. |
