The torque specs on the allen heads used for adjustment are 7 ft/lbs.

Overtightening is one of the big reasons for failure. Basically people tighten the allenheads so much the UCA slots deform, metal has horrible elastic properties so the material ends up being thinner than when you first received them, therefor it leaves nothing for the allenheads to grip onto.

Great work WC!
