Torquing a bolt (first pass) (final pass) ???
* First pass 44 lb ft
* Final pass plus 30 degrees
So I torque to 44 then turn and additional 30 degrees? Is this right?
Does this mean it's a TTY bolt? It does not say it is. Why wouldn't they simply have a torque spec?

Some electronic torque wrenches have an angle feature on them where you can set the angle. You turn to the torque you desire and set the angle and then turn again.
I'm currently using the Gear Wrench 85074. It's a 1/2" drive, but they mark an equally featured 3/8 drive as well.
Snap On and several of the other tool trucks have them too and an exorbitantly exaggerated price.
