The fc is 65-87 ft-lbs so i would assume an fd would be the same.

Yep, just about the same for an FD/  66-86 ft-lbs / 89-117 Nm

Unless you work at the local tyre depot....then just get the biggest bar going...and stand on it!  And if you dont weigh in at least 20 stone...get a mate to join you!!

Surely you\'d be weakening the threads!?

Hell yeah!
 
You\'ll stretch those little things, and ironically it will cause the nut to loosen!
 
Correct torque only!!  I always use 85ftlbs
