MilesFox Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 145 lb-ft torque. Don't really need a torque wrench if you have a big breaker bar. Most importantly, the washers have to be oriented the correct way to hold torque. The flat washer is actiually a spring washer which is concave with the convex side against the nut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikaleda Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Just give it as much force as you can with a breaker bar and you'll probably be fine. Just don't jump on the breaker bar tightening it Edited May 21, 2013 by mikaleda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
