Sykes Pickavant do a good one.
http://www.shacktools.com/sykespickavant-12-torque-wrench-330nm-p-5572.html?manufacturers_id=14&osCsid=ec4d48a89da5be4d9f03a6d91b48974c

I have a 600Nm one for work (not the same make) with a 3/4 drive. It has a 3/4 to 1/2 reducer rated at 500Nm. Expensive - but a whole load easier than pulling full torque on a cheaper wrench that is at full capacity...  You wouldn't want to carry it on a train though  ;D ;D ;D

As post above Pete. I woudn't want to pull more than 200 on one of those if my living depended on it. In fact, I do pull exactly 200 on one of those. Day in, day out.

Luckily, I work for a big company so if I injure myself I still get paid.

If I needed to do more than that, I would use the big one.

For wheel bearings, a fart and 2 grunts does the trick!

I take it the wheelbearing torque doesn't need to be that specific then, as long as it's effing tight? ::)
