Hey guys, I just got my lowering spring installed yesterday but we didn't get a chance to tighten it with a torque wrench. My friend has one but his size doesn't fit in my lug. Anyone know the size that fits in the stock tc2 lug? Also how many pounds should we torque it to for manufacturer settings? My friend and I skimmed through the manual and we couldn't find it. Any helps appreciated. Thanks!

 

for the 1st gen tc, it is 76 ft/lbf. I am sure most compact car and sedan are around that range.

 

I thought I heard somewhere that its like 78 lbs but i'm not sure. I just tighten mine down till they are tight, but not "gorilla tight." Sorry for using all of these technical terms ;-)

 

wow, posted at the same time. Yea, 76 sounds about right

 

80 ft/lb 21mm socket

 

76-ft-lbs with a 21-mm socket...

BTW...RTFM

 

its also in the owners manual...

 

did all the suspension parts not get torqued to spec either then ??????
