overtorqued tranny fill bolt
did oil, tranny, diff fluid change today. I set my torque wrench to 33 ft#, but forgot to tighten the wrench, so when I went to torque the tranny fill bolt, the wrench didn't click and I over torqued the bolt. I figure I put maybe 50 ft# on it before I realized what was wrong. I took the bolt out and didn't see any metal from a stripped thread. I then retightened to the correct 33 ft#. Think I did any damage? I know there are bolts on the engine block that are torqued to over 60ft#, so I imagine the metal of the tranny case can handle it. thoughts?
