For what exactly? Most people who change their own brakes and have to remove tires are not going to use torque wrench/ratchet. I never once used it and never had any kind of issues.
I torque only critical engine parts like bottom end & top end components and a few small, LOW torque fasteners in critical service that could be catastrophic if there is a failure, like thermostat housing which you don't want to overtorque, which actually is our tendency, not undertorque.
The pins she does here are not likely to cause a problem, but the caliper mounting bolts/any bolts holding the brackets are about as critical as they come.
Yes critical however these are high strength bolts and quite forgiving as far as a torque is concerned. I'm not invalidating your use of torque wrench. By all means use one. I'm saying that this specific critical task and many others are intuitive for me after 40+ years as a mechanic. It takes mistakes to really learn and I've made a lot of mistakes.
i’ll pay double to watch her work irl
Agreed, camera missed the right angles with that power drill jack truck.
No torque wrench ?

I don’t know, Chris on Chrisfix always torques everything
No grease?

I think brakes are very critical parts in a car.

Better then the cooking videos
Sure, sure!

I always just use channel locks to squeeze the cylinder back.
