HARDWARE
Generally, three classes of standard hardware and three
classes of metric hardware are used in the vehicle. Grade
5 hardware can be identified by the three marks on the
hexagonal head; grade 8 hardware is identified by six
marks on the head; grade 2 hardware is unmarked. The
class specifiction is marked on metric hardware.
Periodically, the vehicle should be inspected for loose fas-
teners. Fasteners should be tightened with care and in
accordance with the Torque Specifications table or as
specified in the Repair and Service Manual for this vehi-
cle.

installed are considered 'wet' and require approximately 80% of the torque required for 'dry' fasteners.
