According to the shop manual, we are supposed to torque the crankshaft bolt to 30 ftlbs then tighten an additional 90 degrees.
Even with the aid of a floor jack I was only able to tighten the bolt about 65 degrees. At that point, my breaker bar was bending a startling amount and the bolt was not getting any tighter. Think that is enough? I'm afraid that trying to tighten it more will break something honestly.
