From my other post, I figured out that my buddy's Blaster seized because of improper torque on the nuts on the bottom of the cylinder. My question here is how do you get an accurate torque reading off of those four bottom nuts? If a crows foot is used, will it throw off the torque reading to the low side thus over torquing the cylinder again? Is there some kind of special tool that has to be use here because of the tight space?

use a motion pro trque wrench adapter. There is a fromula they includ to insure proper torque. Never go by the "feel". Comes with 12 and 14 mm ends.
