make sure its 'inch pounds' and not 'foot pounds' as the directions say. For mine, I used the nut driver, but I would have prefered the tourque wrench to to it up to the tee. Sorry, I only have a foot pounds tourque wrench...

i heard you can use the ftlbs wrench but you have to convert it online to get it into the right unit.

go to sears and buy the craftsman one... 65 bucks or something. it'll come in handy, and if you dont really need it for future installs, you can return it (thats what i did)
