Yup- Goran's 700 ft-lbs is higher than POCA recommended 300-320 ft-lbs, but trust us. If the nut is tightened to either level, nothing under it will move! Note also that home-garage torque wrenches only go to 150 ft-lbs, so you'll need to rent/buy or borrow either a BIG torque wrench (next size is 0-600 ft-lbs) or a torque multiplier to go along with that socket. This can be a home-fabricated arm as long as your wrench to effectively double the scale reading, or a geared device. The socket is also designed for a 3/4" drive, so you'll probably also need a 3/4-to-1/2" adapter.

< And finally where can I rent that special spanner wrench?
The spanner-socket is over $100 from all Pantera parts suppliers, but many owners buy their own and such are lent out to others at POCA chapter tech sessions or club meetings. What chapter do you belong to? Or failing that, what area of the country do you live in?
