What brand of sockets are you guys using? I couldn't get a socket on my banjo bolts, that I can remember. I know I've had to use an open end wrench to tighten mine up in the past.

I have always just used a wrench........But if you want to torque it proper you would use a crowfoot wrench on your torque wrench.

I thought a torque wrench wasn't accurate with a crow foot.

You just have to compensate for one.

Torque Wrench Crowfoot Extension Calculator



Most good Torque Wrench manufacturers supply all that Info in the manual that comes with them / if you don't have a manual or a high/good quality torque wrench then the NET is a good place to find the info you need.

It parobably was in the manual but being a good red blooded man I threw than away before using the tool.

Danny from arlen ness told me that a thin walled socket will do the trick as well.
if your having probs with Arlen ness gear they seem quite helpfull and respond fast to emails.
