In reply to aircooled :
Torquing in situ will be perpendicular to gravity, so I can't hang or stand on anything to turn it.
What if you set up a rope and cable system so you hang 200 lbs ( maybe a few more for drag) and the rope passes through 2 pulleys to redirect the force to be pulling horizontally.

If we're talking about this thing I'd just put some loctite on it and impact it in.

Berk it, just reef it in with as long a cheater bar as you can muster and call it a day. You'll be fine.

Yup. Knurled's got it.
I used to have to torque bolts in that range on a reactor doing acetylene reactions. Then, I would care.
A Dana 60? Not so much.
