I would use a regular socket to get it snug, then use to torque wrench to make sure it's at 150lbs if that's what it calls for.

A week or two ago i broke my dad's torque wrench, found a brand new one exactly the same for like 70 bucks on ebay. They come in handy, for whenever you to any kind of work that requires taking off and putting on wheels. if you take care of them they will last a long time.
