Hi, how tight do you do your nuts? wondering as i had mine set to the same as the tin top and thought that would be ok but during my sva i removed two nuts as requested and one had the thread slightly buggered - dreading checking the rest now
Cheers

Personally I dont torque them....

I do them up tight with a wheel wrench and thats it. They are very unlikely to come undone....

The only bolts I torque are things like suspension bolts and head bolts, I do pretty much everything else by 'feel'.

110 nm torques

Hi, Yeah i know what you mean but with my choice of tools are either a short 1/2 inch ratchet and im always left feeling they could be tighter and the next step up is my 24" breaker bar which would certainly ruin them without feeling tight. Knowing a rough torque NM or LBFT setting would just be piece of mind.

110Nm for me too Same as my clutch nut!!!

Wicked il go with 110nm, i was running a bit higher than that so hope they aint all buggered - fingers crossed!

just tight and copper grease so i can take them off agen

I have alloy M12 wheelnuts and use 90Nm. Copper slip them and you should be fine.

after watching someone snap a wheel stud in the hub with a wheel rench I now always use a torque rench.... set to 90! Cant go wrong!

I use 110Nm as recommended for my vauxhalls, and will prolly go with that for the locost in the absence of a mazda manual.

70 lb's foot for mine, works fine, never stripped any, or broken any, Cheers Ray

The correct torque setting for both Cortina and Sierra wheel nuts is 90 Newton Metres.
