No, only the big one, which is a click-type (with a ratchet) and
19-mm impact socket for the wheel nuts.  Works on smaller stuff as
well with a half-to-3/8 adapter.  I use a beam-type to check its
calibration, as click-type wrenches are notorious for being wrong
(this Craftsman one has been right on, though, for over a
decade).  At home I've got two smaller beam types that are more
convenient for the small stuff.  The big one is actually easier to
stow since the scale doesn't stick out on the sides.

Side note -- on this Craftsman one at least, you have to keep it
wound down to zero in between uses or it takes a set that takes a few
hours to relax.  Never tested it, but that's what the manual said.

Yours,
David
