involving whiMII or lug removal, during
the
lifa
of
the nK:IHtiunal vehicle.
2.Torque readings must
fall
within the Accaptable Torque Range. -see

Chart
3.
Torque specifications, must
be
checked
by
using a torque wrench.
*Digital or Dial
Torque Whlnches are recommended.

- See
Wheel TOI"qw lnalnlctloniJ
and
Wheal
Lug Nut Diagram
for the correct pattem and recommended finaltorque value.
5. During travel,wheellug nuts must be
