Hi Will,

I'm not sure if this is what you were asking (I see that your message was
directed to Jerry), but we 'discovered' the over torquing by setting our
torque wrench on the spec value and confirming that the wrench 'clicked,'
and then progressively increased the setting higher and continued checking
until the wrench did not click and nudged the nut a bit.
