Hoping to find a ratcheting torque wrench, in either 3/8" or 1/4" drive, with
a range of approximately 10 to 100 inch-pounds. No luck so far -- everything
I'm finding that goes down as low as 10 doesn't go any higher than 50.
Doesn't really matter whether it's calibrated in inch-pounds or newton-meters.
I can do the conversion in my head. If I can just find a wrench with the range
I want.
TIA...

I use two as well. Accuracy is important and that is a large range that not
even I'd trust my Snap-On Digitorque to. You really do need two separate
tools and make sure they do not have a reversing mechanism. Some bone-head
will invariably use it as a ratchet and you will then have to kill him as
that ruins em' every time.
