HI SCOTT, I would not follow the directions below unless you want to break the studs. I have been a mechanic for years and the correct way is to lossen the nut. Or back it off a little then retorque. Otherwise you take the chance of streching it just enough where it may break. Believe me I have seen stuberen people do it the other way and pay ten bucks a piece for head studs and pay to have there torque wrench checked. and still break studs becuase they were trying to retorque the nut and each time before it clicked it streched it enough to break. With the new type clicker wrenches it should not happen but it does sometimes. JON
