Well F!!!!
Installed the bushings and sport bar tonight and hand tightened snug only the 4 bolts on brackets but then had a small mechanics remorse for not actually torquing to 14ftlbs so I used a new Harbor Freight quality (aka Princess Auto in Canada) and something didn't seem right when torquing and then I sheared a welded bolt off from the sub frame and then had to spend hours drilling out the remaining bolt and install another aftermarket design (nut and bolt). What a pain in the ass the faulty torque wrench caused.
