Here is a web-site to a popular one, there are many others and plenty of places rent them... http://www.hytorc.com Another method you may want to consider, if the torque required on the nut is large, is stud tensioning. Really is a superior method to torquing a nut. http://www.htico.com/variable-stud-tensioners.html Upvote 0 Downvote
