Default Little help here...

Hi folks,
Was wondering if anyone in the Reston-ish area has a torque wrench that registers to around 225ft/lbs or so? Mine only goes to 100ft/lbs, and I don't really want to shell out for another one.

I need to grease and re-torque my rear axle nuts (I've got the rather annoying rear axle noise when starting off from a stop, and it's getting worse (there's a TSB for it)).

Anyway, if I could borrow said torque wrench for about 20 minutes, I'd appreciate it.

EDIT: Never mind Autozone apparently has a free rental program, and they've got what I need.

Thanks anyway!

Just to clarify - it's not actually FREE. You buy the tool and then get the full amount back when you return it.

Ummm... actually, that's more or less "free" in my book.
You don't buy the item... you put a deposit on it. Like you said, you get the money back when the item is returned.
It's not like they're charging me interest on the amount deposited.
