Now that I'm in the middle of working on the brakes and suspension of my #Lexus #LS400 , I want to be sure that these parts won't fall of. Usually I work by feel and rely on experience, but just to be sure I want to tighten important bolts to spec. Now, I have this cheap torque wrench that I've been using for years, but I never really checked or calibrated it.
To make sure that I torque these safety-critical components to spec, I'm calibrating my trusty old torque wrench. In this video I show you how it's done.

PLEASE NOTE: This is not a certified method you should use for customer work, but it's good enough for home mechanics and hobby projects. And for government work.
