Hmmmmmm, yep my U-bolts were loose on my rig when I got it...took my trusty socket wrench and snugged them all down. Didn't feel a need for a torque wrench since I don't think there is a strict tolerance there. I use it when I rebuild a motor and when I'm working on my bike and even on lug nuts to be sure I got them tight enough. But just to tighen down misc bolts like on leaf springs and u-bolts I have never bothered with it. Just gotta watch you don't strip or snap one off.
