Been doing some research on my 2010 MDX to decide if I want to tackle TB replacement early before I get too old and feeble, lol. Balancer bolt torque is way outside the range of my torque wrench but Honda gives you a way out by specifying torque as 47 ft-lbs plus 60 degrees. Just recently had a similar issue with my Toyota. Would be nice if Toyota also offered a torque plus degree spec. Question: is there a table or rule of thumb to convert degrees rotation to ft-lbs for various fasteners? Thanks.
PS I noticed NGK spark plugs also specify degree rotation in addition to ft-lbs.
Edit. Just found this explanation:
