Agreed, I build John Deere equipment and you should torque the nuts when possible but most of the nuts aren't very accessible

On the upper track bar bolt I reversed the bolt where the nut is towards front of vehicle. I was able to use an extension and torque to 125. Hoping there will not be any issues with drag link clearance since it sticks out farther now. As to the lower, there is no way to accurately torque due to space issues. Was only able to tighten the front while I used torque to set at 125. That was the only option for me.
