I've read the threads on the install but just for my peace of mind I'm gonna ask anyway
installing the BC 1.5, using the crush washer provided, I hand tightened to about 11 o'clock (if top is is 12o'clock) then torqued it down so the logo ended up at 6 o'clock. I tightened with a wrench to 1 o'clock twice, then backed off. After that it was smooth sailing to the 6 o'clock position...this is where my concern comes in. It felt like it could've kept going easily. Mind you, no use of a vise here, just standing on the receiver. Any reason for concern?
BC site does say no more that 25lbs while torquing. So it's probably fine.
