Default Rear Axle Nut Torque Wrench Use

I meant to mention this earlier to the Atlanta 928 guys.

I found a hardly used Armstrong 3/4 drive(50-400 lbs) torque wrench on Ebay a while ago, during my rear half shaft overhaul project. It was sent out for a check out and calibration and then used it on my axle nut 340/350 lbs tightening.

If you need to have your axle nut torqued up and can get your car to the Dacula, GA area the torque wrench is here for your use.

(can someone give me a good link to the Atlanta 928 Facebook page that I think was setup? I will put the torque wrench info on there to)

I went to the October event and NO 928s were present. By the way, if anyone in ATL is looking for a 928, I am selling mine. Lost my garage space during the move here and don't have time to work on it much now. PM me if you have interest.

I used to drive daily to work on Old Milton. Now usually on weekends, or the Fry's, Home Depot, Lowes run.
We did a run to the N. Georgia mountains with Greg Nettles (Blown87-RIP) and others two years ago that was a lot of fun.

Otis, I am in the Dacula, GA area, near Auburn. No place to park a semi, but let me know next time you are town and we will do dinner and talk sharks!

I will not be at C&O this time, I have to go to WCU in Sylva, NC and pick up my son for an Eagle Scout ceremony Sun PM in Milton. I have to leave early, or I would drop by in the shark.
I have always found parking, but not in the main lot. Even around the corner is OK. Also, there is a lot of movement, and spaces open up quickly.
