    Wait..What?
    Are you saying it reached torque that far out, and you had to continue tighten with a breaker bar??

    If bolt reaches tourque that far out something needs addressed before continuing whether its running a thread chaser through, or looking deeper.
    If there is that much rust it will often result in pulled threads, or galding, and should be cleared first.

    And if not, sometimes if you just spit on it, magic happens. Trust me on this, I torque a lot.

    I asked about that on here and the advice given was "screw it on in---likely bound up in a little rust."

    That was 3,300 miles ago and no detected problems.

    ***
    Ran some errands, delivered used oil to the local auto parts store, and got to drive my Tundra at night, not pulling a trailer. I'd been wanting to drive her at night and test out the lights, so did that tonight. :)

    Low and high beams are right where I'd want those.

    New ko3s ride so smooth so far. Feel like I accelerate and brake easier via my butt dyno data.

    I do need a new alignment, at low speeds I’m drifting to the right. Also my old ko2 had so many nails in them after reviewing them today off the rim But never had a flat. IMG_3110.jpg

    My old stereo kept cutting out on my iPhone Bluetooth so I finally bought something with CarPlay. Hate not having a volume knob but it was the trade off. Created a little start up splash screen so I didn’t have to see the stupid pioneer NEX one when it starts up. IMG_9771.jpg
