Stretch i read and learn from forum threads, are you a mecanich?impressing work you have done and info you provide in this forum!
If you look back through the thread you can find a method of making your own tool. Otherwise you need a torque wrench that has a dial indicator (rather than click). These are expensive...

...the nut does indeed need to be unlocked - "de-peened".

I'm not a professional mechanic (any more - used to work on aircraft) I consider myself to be an enthusiastic amateur.
