Apparently I can only post 5 times every 24 hours.

I decided that it's all too complicated for me. I went ahead and bought myself a torque wrench, I found a fairly decent deal on a 1/2" that goes from 28 to 110nm I believe it is. They didn't have the right right Allen key socket/set thing so I had them order one that should arrive tomorrow. A lot of people on here say I'd have to go for at least 35ft lb, so I imagine I'd have to set it at 50NM? Anyways. I took the crank arm off and I'd say it looks like there's no real damage. I'll try to post some pictures. Live and learn, I guess.
