kingbobdole Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Torque it till you fart and back it off a quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby_boucher Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Torque it till you fart and back it off a quarter. I think i would probably strip them before i farted i'm about 265 lbs and i dont know how much those bolts can handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtnman38 Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 So yea I just went with the stock specs . It seems to be working well At least I have a base line so I dont get over zellus with the bolts each time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be working well At least I have a base line so I dont get over zellus with the bolts each time yeah just make sure you go back a week or so later and tighten everything back down, and threadlock/locktite is a good idea. Also I dont know exactly what bolts AA uses, but I used 1/2" grade 8 bolts, I'd LOOOVE to see someone strip one o those without pulling out the 5ft breakerbar extension... Really tight is good, but too tight is bad because if some blocks arent tied together, things will move and flex and you will be snapping bolts, like I did... but then again I also have 6" of lift.
