If I haven't got a torque wrench handy and I'm worried about over tightening something I use a ring spanner rather than a ratchet and socket. There's a good reason why they're different lengths and it's a lot harder to strip an M8 thread with the appropriate ring spanner than it is if you're using a bloody great 1/2" drive ratchet.
