Dok,

Can you give me an explanation as to why a clicker is not accurate enough.
You mention the long studs, so I assume that some how affects the clicker
wrench.  If a clicker wrench is calibrated correctly, why wouldn't it click
at the proper torque?  The torque reading on a beam wrench can change just
by moving your head a little.
