Just done a torque test on the 10mm replaced ball joint , did torque to 100Nm, but on reaching 118Nm the bolt stretched and snapped, my wheel bolts are (14mm) and torque to 120Nm, these are just 10mm and torque to 100Nm, seems way to hight to me !.
The torque for the actual 14mm ball joint nut is only 60Nm !.

Genuine new bolts?
