Those pesky lug nuts (and the rotors too) 850 97

posted by  someone claiming to be Bryan on  Mon Nov 12 07:54 CST 2001 [RELATED]

From what I’ve seen on Bay13 and other places, the torque setting for the 850’s wheels is 81ft. lb. Snap-on sells a wheel torque bar (for impact wrenches) with a limitation setting of 80 ft. lb. Is this close enough or do the wheels really need that extra lb? If so, is there a place that sells one with the exact setting?

I can only assume that the biggest factor in preventing the warping of the rotors is to have all five lug nuts tightened evenly, providing their not slammed on at 300 ft. lbs.

Thanks for the input.
