Re: 6 wheel swerves

The entire torque wrench assembly would then be self-standing even when disconnected from the wheel testing rig. Due to various size wheels, we used this block in combination with a series of spacers to keep the extension on the torque wrench fully supported for all wheel sizes.
I can't quite picture what you're describing. If the torque wrench handle is captured in a (stationary?) aluminum block, how do you push on it to exert a torque?

Do you have a picture of the fixture?
