P.S. LOL How do you use a torque wrench? Do you hand tighten until bolt reaches surface and then use torque wrench or what?
Thanks for the help.

You can either hand-tighten or use any wrench/ratchet to tighten, but only until it's just getting snug. Research the torque you'll be needing to apply; torque wrenches are rated to operate only within specific ranges (i.e. 10 to 75 ft. lbs.)
You've got the click-type confused. You set the target torque (as in #3), and when you're ready to torque down, you tighten slowly until you hear a click. Most people will then release the pressure and do the tightening motion again, releasing pressure after each click, for 2 or 3 clicks.
