Rear track bar - temporary play

Hi guys,

First off, I will listen to the advice given :yup:

Tonight I installed my new rear swaybar links, tomorrow Ill install the old rear ones in the front.
While I was busy doing the links, I installed my rear track bar relocation bracket.

I have plenty of sockets in various sizes etc, but only have up to a 19mm spanner and I need a 20mm, I cant get the socket into the new "old" gap because the bracket is taking up the space.
I could get an adjustable water clamp "pliers in to grip the nut, but I could not torque it to spec, its tight, but not sure its tight enough.

I did however torque the new track bar bolt at 169NM.
Will I be ok to drive for a while (like 2- 4 days) until I get myself a 20mm spanner?

Heres what the bracket looks like etc.

I managed with a shifting spanner :rock:
Took the spring out and tightly fitter the spanner in the gap, torqued to 169NM and its good to go :clap2:
