I am about to install one after work today. I think the install work will be pretty straight forward. But I do not have a torque wrench to see how tight I need to make the bolts? I figure get them at tight as possible? Or should I just buck up for a torque wrench on the way home?

When I installed my FSTB, I didn't have one either. Just make sure everything is good and tight and you'll be fine.

Cool, thank you. I figured I would be ok if I tightened them as tight as I could.

You can go to a hardware store or auto parts store and borrow their torque wrench for a deposit. Then, just go out into the parking lot and make sure everything is torqued to the right specs. Won't take more than 10 minutes

A torque wrench isn't a bad investment either. I say buy one if you can. If not, at least borrow one like UMD said.
