Has anyone used a digital torque wrench and measured what the trackbar specified torque of 74 ft/lbs + 30 degrees and +60 degrees actually measures out to in ft/lbs?

Also curious.
Hopefully it’s around 110 ft/lb since that is what my lift manufacturer specified.

Mine went to 124 ft/lbs with a Snap-On torque wrench that hasn’t been calibrated since 2009. Your results may vary.

I found this chart. If it's a M14, my recollection is they are zinc plated and fine thread. I don't recall the grade, but the torque on the chart would be either 143 or 173 for a 10.9 or 12.9 respectively.
