  I'm not familiar with the MP RRs, but I believe the generally accepted
method of torquing down a stud is to put two nuts on it, tighten them
against each other, then put the torque wrench on the top nut. Once
its in, just loosen the nuts (being careful to only put pressure on the
nuts themself, don't let the wrench loosening the top nut back out the stud
itself) and remove them.
