Yup, you need a torque wrench. Thats with any fsb. I have the otto fsb myself. torque wrenches are cheap and a good investment. torque the bolts to 35lbs

And in answer to your other question, yes, the three bolts on each side are the ones you take off. The bolts on the bar itself should also be tight so the bar does not swivel around.
