Need torque specs for drive pin/allen bolts
Anyone know the torque specs for the 10mm drive pin/allen bolts on the Backdraft knock-off adaptor. These are the 5 "lug bolt" replacement allen bolts that hold the knock-off adaptor hat on the original BMW M3 hub rear. No idea what grade the aliens are, no marks on the bolts.
Thanks, Wayne |
Vintage recommends 85 ft lbs for pins on 1/2 inch wheel studs with a bit of blue threadlocker. Don't know specific to Backdraft - what size wheel studs do you have?
Edit - just noticed you said 10mm - so 85 ft lbs is too high. |
Actually, bolt size is 12 mm once I really go to look at it. Looks like BMW recommends 85 ft lbs as well. I used some red high temp on the threads and most certainly will have to heat them next time I remove them.
Thanks for responding. Wayne |
