I'd rather buy a quality wrench for $50 than a crappy one for $30. Or do the DPMS combo wrenches seem to work ok? I mainly need it for installing the buffer tube, as my YHM FF tube has it's own special tool for installing.
 
I personally like the USGI small wrench myself. I can never get the big DPMS one to fit correctly and the weight makes it move around.
 
I use the proper size combination (open/box end) wrench to install buffer tubes, personally. IMHO the torque requirements on that part are not critical, so I just snug them up good. If I feel the need to torque one, I have an old GI Armorer's Wrench - the one with the cutouts for the three-prong flash suppressor.
