Firstly I hope you all had a happy new year.

Now! recently we have had a lot a talk about the dreader PO and the rear axel nut. All sorts of good info hav been bandied around.

One common thread is how to get the torque on the rear axel nut when doing the rear bearings. I remember a tool made in US called a torque meister or something similiar that was able to provide the required ft pounds to that nut without much trouble.

Anyone know or remember the tool in question. Maybe someone has reference to a web site or something. Sure seems betted that having a jumbo park his rear end on a 15 foot breaker bar.
