    I’m gonna do my own brakes after I find adequate jack stands. But, where do I find a torque bar from? Won’t I need an adapter?

    @D.Tibbitt

    I watched a lot of his videos this weekend. They’re pretty simple to understand.

    Order one online would be the cheapest or get one from a tool truck. Not sure what adapter you’re talking about, but you’ll need a roughly 12” extension.
