How tight do I make the joints on the Boostwerks shackles?

I am just in the middle of installing my new boostwerks shackles with the ballistic joints. But how tight to I put the insert with the spanner wrench? As tight as it will go?
 
IIRC it's a polyurethane race in the johnny joint boostwerks is using. I would spin it in gently until the nut is touching the race, tighten to the next set screw & grease it. If you make it too tight, the grease won't get in between the ball and race.

Thanks you.
 
Your right i cant seem to find any install on there site. Kind of lame.

On a few other forums i saw what was posted above. Snug, then tighten to the next locking notch.
