Hi Bill,

Getting to second question first.  The only way I could figure to get a
torque wrench on those dampener bolts was to borrow a  "Crows Feet" socket .
The look like the end of a open end wrench that has been cut off with a
standard size hole punched for a socket wrench.  You hook your torque wrench
on the end of one the proper size and it will slide in with sufficient
clearance to get on the dampener bolt.  A "Crows Feet" socket/wrench looks
like this:
Bill,
 
If you are going to use the crows foot attachment, remember that you have to calculate the actual torque provided by the indicated torque on  the wrench. There is a formula for that. Depending on what angle your torque wrench is to the actual nut/bolt, your delivered torque will be different.
