I believe he needs a dial type to set pinion bearing preload. If you want one cheap your going to have to order it online. Any retail store is going to rip you a new one. Check harbor freight for a 1/4" dial meter, maybe northern.

You can use either one, you just need something able to measure the dragging torque. Beam or dial will measure any torque acting on the wrench, i.e. bearing drag.
in/lb torque wrenches aren't in very high demand and the kd-tools beam wrench was the only "budget" one I could find. Everything else I found were "professional" dial wrenches from Snap-on, Mac, etc. for at least several hundred dollars.
