Unitec 10911 U Bock Professional
Unitec 20809 Torque wrench with nuts

additionally helps:
- Ratchet for removing and tightening the screws
- Old newspaper as a support for the knee, because the are dirty
- Gloves, because tires are dirty
- Large screwdriver for the drain plug of the jack
- Chalk for marking the tires
- Wooden wedges, stones to secure the car against rolling
- Rubber pad (. Eg from the terracing) to protect the contact points on the car
- Flashlight (it gets dark early in the fall)
- Pulle beer because the tire change but takes longer than you think, with the unpacking and cleaning up takes the most time. In addition, this is a very nice and warm.

Along the bill was 76.85 and Amazon had even lured into the festive season with a 10 coupon, so were paying 66.85. Ie. After 3 tire changes the idea succeeds vs. financially. a workshop worthwhile. A wheel change I have now put behind me yesterday. Here is my experience:

> The torque wrench
The torque wrench comes in a practical plastic box, which is great for the clean storage in the basement. It is a guide that you should read slowly. Actually, everything is clear: There is a lock nut at the lower end of the handle that must be solved and find before and after you've made an adjustment of the torque - Manual force is sufficient to do so. The setting itself is not "soft", the readability of the scale is modest, but it works. After use, when intercalates the key, you should provide the torque to the minimum value.

For the price paid, I use the keys definitely not to solve any screws and you should convince the appropriate office of the nut on the adapter and on the nut before exerting force. Larger shear forces is nothing of surviving in the long run. I'm assuming here Caution increases the service life. Clear is probably that the key is do not last forever at the low price. Inexpensive tool is a gamble, I myself have bought because of relatively positive reviews.

How much you rotate? The so-called. Releasing the key when reaching the set torque is not really a tangible solving, so it does not take the key with a start into a bottomless pit. No it does "sticking" when you reach the torque immediately on another "sticking" if you then subsides by train. In the German manual is mistranslated under item 4: "The pressure from the handle and must be made by the key ..." says: "The pressure from the handle and must be taken off the key ..." - so the pressure subside, then there is the second crack.

Incidentally, it is amazing how little force is required to achieve approximately demanded 120Nm with the key. That was earlier with the cross keys a horror and a nightmare for the back.

> I would buy again and recommend buying?
Clearly two "Yes!" But that part must survive at least 3 wheel change. The one knows but only after one year.
