I agree with the others that you have a fit problem not a troque requirement 
issue, but I wanted to mention that you should not use a troque wrench at its 
highest value or lowest for that matter.  All wrenchs  when pushed to the end 
of their scale give false readings.  Rule of thumb is work with in 80% of top 
or bottom of range.  You should use a wrench that has a range of at least a 
100 ft lbs  to do the rod caps.
