35 Ft lbs for Tie Rod end nuts. Its that enough?
Chiltons book specify 35 Ft Lbs and I am checking with you guys if thats enough... or is it that I am insanely strong? 
Its tight but is it really enough? I am used to pulling the **** out of strong bolts and this is just too easy for me.
Just checking with you guys.

Id just go as tight as you can get em if it doesnt seem right. If you are talkin about the castleated kind, you just need to get them on good enough that you can get the pin through the hole. Also make sure they dont allow the wheel to wobble back and forth when you kick the tire lightly when its all put together (Good way to test).
