Default Real-world procedure

Yes, you can use a torque wrench, but the vast majority of folks I know, and the method I use, is to merely set the preload to the point that the swivel is tight and smooth. The biggest issue with swivel preload is to get both sides as close to the same as you can.

After doing 20 or 30 of them, you'll get the hang of it and know when it's tight enough and not too tight.
