Bought a cheap torque wrench from Harbor Freight and figured it would break after a month

I needed a torque wrench for my transmission swap so I grabbed the $20 one on a whim. Ive used it on 4 different jobs now and it clicked exactly where it should every single time. Has anyone else had good luck with the budget stuff that everyone says to avoid?

Nah, my buddy used that exact wrench on his engine rebuild and it still works perfect three years later.

Nah man @lee689, you're missing the point. It's not about lasting, it's about the damn warranty they'll fight you on.

Did your friend actually get the warranty to pay out, though?
