I need to torque centerlock wheel nuts to 380-400ft-lbs. I'm debating between buying a torque multiplier or a 3/4'' drive tq wrench. the problem w/ the multiplier is I don't think it will be easy to use with the rims, but I have no idea how much effort 400ft-lbs will require.
if a 1/2'' drive torque wrench is 25'' in length and a 3/4'' is 50'', does this mean I should expect 400ft-lbs with the 3/4'' drive to require the same effort as 200ft-lbs with the 1/2''? (i.e., force = torque/length).
