Now I go around the car twice with the torque wrench to be sure.
LOL I woke up at 2 am the night i finished it realizing i didnt torque the lug nuts when i put the wheels back on. So I got out of bed got out the socket and torque wrench and put them by the front door so that I wouldnt drive off to work with them loose. the next morning i torqued them all before leaving for work.
