When a precision tool is needed sometimes it's better to take the plunge
and purchase a top of the line item.
Sears tools have changed considerably in the last 10-15 years, and the
quality isn't there.
Maybe it's due to the out sourcing of manufacturing.
Who know's?
I think after two rides I would get awfully tired of taking the trip
back and forth returning a broken tool.
Try a Snap On, Mac, or another top shelf torque wrench.
Mine have never broke.

I am on my third Craftsman 10-75 ft-lb torque wrench. I had the first
one for about 7 months and when using it recently the springs popped out
of the locking mechanism. Sears replaced it, but reluctantly, because I
did not have my receipt (they are
��only warranted for one year). Fortunately, I used a credit card
and they were able to pull my purchase up on the computer and so they
replaced it. I came back home and was using my new wrench to torque the
cv axles on Maggie's bus and the racheting
��mechanism would not reverse at a certain point (maybe a bad tooth
in the ratcheting mechanism). I took it back and this time Sears gladly
replaced it.
Is it a good torque wrench? I have my doubts about its long term
viability. But for the home mechanic, who else sells a good one?
Best of luck.
