I just installed my first HG cassette. I don't have a socket large enough for the tool so was not able to use my torque wrench yet; I just used a large crescent wrench and tightened it a few turns.

I didn't want to overtighten or strip it - is it normal to hear a lot of clicking as you tighten? and I 've not yet test ridden - will it loosen rapidly if I've not tightened it on sufficiently?

Finally I do plan on getting the socket to fit the lockring tool; just wanna make sure I didn't do anything wrong - those clicks were freaky sounding.....like the sound a ratchet driver makes.
