Welcome to 2CarPros.

There is a special tool to hold the gear while torquing the bolt. It's simply called a camshaft sprocket wrench. I attached two pics below. The first shows the wrench I am referring to and the second indicates torque specs. I highlighted the foot pounds.

Let me know if you need help with anything.

Take care,
Joe
