The FSM calls for 170-231 lb\ft of torque for the 36mm main axel nut, how do I torque this to the factory setting? My torque wrench and the ones at the auto store only go up to 140.

Should I just use the Dewalt electric impact wrench Ive been using to tighten it up nice and snug?

How do I measure this amount of force?
