The first one i hand tightend and tgen used a 1/4 inch torque wrench on. Worked out like it should have. The other three never got the torque wrench. They never got snug. I just stopped turning after i realized " hey these should be hand tight like a full turn ago".

There's a reason for those inch-pound torque wrenches.

Love how i feel like im always defending myself here. Im a noob. I did not strip them out. They never got snug nor tight enough to strip. Ill just leave it like it is so i dont have to hear crap about the way it was fixed.

" safe riding" or what ever
