Dual Wheels Bolt Torque
IMPORTANT:
Wheel bolts must be clean and free of lube before installing. Torque value is for clean, dry bolt. Lubricating reduces friction and overloads the bolts.
1.
Each time a dual wheel is removed, torque wheel bolts to specification without using a torque multiplier. Tighten bolts in a criss/cross pattern.
