I think I got some good guidance from another forum about not having loaded the suspension fully before tightening. The rationale is that the shock not being fully seated in the mount without being loaded would cause some “sideways” force to be applied on the stud while tightening, as it would be in the mount in an orientation other than perfectly “straight”. This argument seems to Hold water for me, as the reinstall went fine with torquing it while loaded. I don’t think it was the torque wrench’s fault. Thanks for your replies and interest thus far guys.
