Hey! from your brothers in the 4.0L forum. I'm just about to put on my 235/55/17 stock GT wheels on my V6 and was wondering what you guys torque these wheels to as nobody in the V6 forum seems to know?

 

Service manual says 98ftlbs...

I usually give it 2 solid grunts if I haven't been working out or just one if I have

 

Thanx man, I might give'r one and a half grunts just to be sure . Its pretty rare that you get a good answer on the first post... At least in the 6'er forum...

 

I've torqued mine down to their specifications, but they still seem to be pretty loose. I was torquing them down with a lot of strength, but it was starting to hurt the threads on the studs. I say tighten them a little more than the required 98 ft-lbs.
