another one of those CustomMax FSTB?????

well Im getting my CustomMax FSTB today, I dont have access to a torque wrench..Ive already heard plenty of stories of people over tightening them..basically all I wanna know is approx. how many times do I need to turn the bolts before tight is too tight?! any help would be appreciated...

i didn't use a torque wrench when i put mine on....just take note of how hard the bolts are to undo when you're taking them off....it's almost impossible to tighten them too hard with a regular ratchet, just use common sense...

It would be a good idea to invest in a torque wrench since you should torque your wheels nuts too. They aren't that expensive.

you should be able to pick up a cheap torque wrench for 30 dollars or less at an auto parts store.
