Do i need to torque this?

I just got my wonder bar from tds and the instructions said that i should torque it to 37 ft lbs. I dont have a torque wrench and no one i know has one. Just curious if i should go out and buy one so i can torque it down of if i can just tighten it without one.

IMHO, you should go buy one. It's one tool you won't ever regret buying.

If money's real tight, you can "rent" one from a place like Autozone. They require a deposit, then you get your $$$ back when you return it.

I agree with AJ. You can never go wrong owning that tool. You should be able to find some under $20.
