LugNut Torque

[MATT]

Is there a spec for the lug nut torque on the M35?
I just hammer them down with lock-tite.

I think its around 250-300 ft lbs, havent heard of using loc-tite.

 

[cranetruck]

400 to 450 according to TM.
Loc-tite would not be the greatest idea, the tension when tightend to spec will keep the nuts on.

 

[rizzo]

don't put never seize on them. Oil is the only lubricant you can use

 

[red devils dude]

just wondering why cant we use never seize? I use it A LOT on all the farm truck's, I retorque after the first
long drive no problems yet never even found a lose lugnut.

I am sorry, i dont use loc-tit. I use anti-seize on the lug nuts, just a small small dab to prevent them from rusting tight!
