    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.
