AEM strut bar install

I installed an AEM strut bar, but not sure if I should go any further tightening the nut. I have a cheap Husky 1/2 inch tourque wrench with a 3/8 reducer using a 13 mm socket. Don't trust the accuracy of the torque wrench so I only went to 20 Ft-lbs. I think the strut mounts have mushroomed a bit.



Would this be fine, since the nut is not all the way?










Should I try to tighten the bolts more?
