Powerbuilt torque wrench Adapter
I recently bought this :
and also this:
the cartman came with its own adapter that can be used with the mcgard,
but the cartman adapter does NOT FIT into the Powerbuilt torque wrench...
I am having difficulty finding the right adapter for the powerbuilt torque wrench to use for the mcgard lugnut....
Does any body know the correct adapter? will these adapter work -
" Mcgard lugnut specs are"
Thanks

If I'm reading everything correctly, all you need is a standard 13/16" socket (maybe a deep socket) with a 1/2" drive. You should be able to find one at pretty much any hardware store, auto parts place, Sears store, etc.
If you want to be doubly sure, just take your torque wrench and lug nut key thingy to the store when shopping for a socket.
(Sometimes you do have to use a good bit of force to get the socket to properly engage or disengage the locking ball on a ratchet. I occasionally need to put the socket on a hard surface and rap the back of the ratchet rather firmly with my palm to get it on, and to pry it off with some suitable flat tool.)
