You're forgetting about the 450ft-lbs on the coach Kerry. When I did mine, I used my 12x reduction wrench and a torque wrench set at 45ft-lbs (lose a bit in the gearing), worked great except for the 17lbs of gear-reduction, times 60 lug-nuts! Did it once in a campground in Disney installing new SS centers, 85degrees and humid, never again.

As far as the torque-sticks, they do work well and you can buy them individually at just the torque for your truck. The design is that they yield at the preset torque, becoming a spring instead of turning the lug, designed for impact-wrenches where you are turing and releasing quickly and don't work when installing a lug-bolt/nut by hand.
