Pro tip: torque wrench calibration feedback saved my brake job in Phoenix

A master tech at a local alignment shop told me my harbor freight torque wrench was likely off by 15 percent after I mentioned a wobble post rotor swap. He had me check it against his snap-on unit, and yeah, mine clicked way late at 80 ft-lbs. I re-torqued all four corners with his calibrated wrench and the vibration vanished on the freeway next day. Has anyone else gotten a reality check on their budget tools from an actual pro?
