How imperative is it that everything is torque'd correctly? I just found out that my torque wrench is not accurate, and i am mid-way through the front suspension? Its most likely over torqued...but i cant be sure.

 

How far off is it? If you overtorque too far you could damage the bolt.

 

dont know. but i was torqing down one nut, and it didnt click...just snapped the bolt.

 

mmm... that's probably not good. Get the wrench calibrated to find out how bad it is. You may want to replace a lot of hardware if it's as bad as it sounds. Overstretched bolts lose a lot of strength... but you can keep your fingers crossed that maybe that bolt was a dud (unlikely but you never know).

 

im just gonna get a new one. it was a cheap pep-boys brand anyway. luckely, i cought it, so i only torqued 2 bolts. the rest are just finger tight for now.
