Worth a try. I have a 3/8" and 1/2" drive so I'll try both. Thanks.

Edit: though now that I think about it I had been using the T/W on nut/bolts for an hour prior making my way around the truck...BUT this was the last nut/bolt I attempted to torque that day so I can't be sure the wrench didn't get tweaked somehow.
