Lug torque
Lug torque
I am going to replace my front brake pads today,
what is the torque on the flanged lug used on a steel dually rim.
Also is this with the:
threads lubricated?
flange face lubricated?
Thanks

After lug centering the wheel with 2 90° cone nuts, torque 6 to 50 ft lbs. Remove cone nuts. Torque the other 2 to 50 ft lbs. Then in a cross pattern torque them all to 300 - 350 ft lbs. Spec. is dry. I use a little no-seize on the threads and torque to 300. The flange must be dry.
Thanks guys,
I knew it was somewhere between 300-350/pounds but I I had to think about the flange being dry or not.
What do you use to torque yours with, a 4-foot breaker bar and a calibrated foot?
I used to use one to remove Budd wheels on transit coaches in the field, it was 6' long had a 6' cheater pipe and usually took another guy to help you, after the first 3-4 lugs you were usually exhausted.
