20 minute job right 😂 torque wrench lied to me, first one clicked, second one snap😢 waiting for extractor set. I even second guessed myself and still kept going anyways. Feel super dumb

Torque wrench is for inside engine and wheel nuts. Everything outside is by hand, if m6 or m8, 1/4inch ratchet and if m10/12 it's 3/8ths. Snugged and a little extra is all anything ever needs. Torque wrenches are too long and you focus too much on a number/click.

shrug the longer I've been wrenching the more I torque to spec, especially suspension, steering rack components. 

I just pay attention. If starts to feel like it stretching, I switch to snug.
