[urq] Hub Nut Bolt Torque

[Ed Kellock]

I set my 150 ft/lb torque wrench to 150 and then used my breaker bar to take
another twist at it.  I leaned on the bar with most of my weight (245#), but
not coming close to lifting my weight off my feet.  I do want to find a
torque multiplier or a torque wrench to be able to do this and other jobs
more accurately.

What's everyone doing to check torque on the hub nuts with the UrQ? Does
everyone have a truck-rated torque wrench? Are people using multipliers?
Would love to know. Thanks so much.
