Long story short
>wheel lugs tightened to 60ft lbs
>supposed to be 89
>been driving for 2000 miles like that
>hear light intermitten knock when turning sharply on slow corners on uneven ground.
Did I fuck up Veeky Forums?
Are my rims wallowed out?
Cant send pics yet. Pic from google.
How the fuck would we know without an actual photo?
Is/was the wheel loose?
Is it a single knock?
Does the knock/knocking come from one side or both?
When did the knock appear
WHAT FUCKING CAR IS IT?
stop bumping no-photo threads
>the reason idiots think Veeky Forums is their personal tech support garage
Fuck off retard.
>torqueing wheel lugs to a specific setting
Autism
If you've ever worked on a car that wasn't a piece of crap you would know why proper wheel retention is important.
If you can't do your wheels nuts up "tight enough to never come undone" without a torque wrench you probably shouldn't touch a spanner.
A torque wrench is to prevent going too tight.
Oh silly me, we should have turned this into a /int/ shittery thread instead?
>going too tight
>on a high tensile ~12mm bolt
If you can manage to do this I applaud you for your strength but question your intelligence.
I may have been in a hurry and used a breaker bar once.
I didn't used to torque until I read about it possibly causing warped rotors from the raybestos site.
I usually just give it an even tug with a breaker bar or tire iron
It must have been a fucking long breaker bar!
But breaker bars aren't ideal anyway because you're more likely to tilt off axis and ruin the thread more because you were bending the stud than because it was too tight.
A wheel brace is forever and always the best tool for the job.
Get a 4 way wheel brace and stick to the gentle curves.
No?
I have real tools lol
I don't know what led you to believe a 4 way wheel brace isn't a "real tool" but I can assure you it is the best tool for the job.
...
I've seen your driving champ.
I'm happy that you have, feels good that people know me, famous or infamous, I'll take either one :3
Also, my driving has nothing to do with the topic at hand, not an argument!
Your driving has everything to do with you implying someone else is a retard.
No it really doesn't, not an argument!
>not an argument
Where was your argument?
A non-argument for a non-argument.
The argument is that a 4way bar is the best tool, it's not
Yes that's my argument, not yours, you have yet to put forth and argument.
A proper set of deep wall impact sockets and an impact wrench for removal, and s torque wrench or impact with torque bars for reinstall, those are the best tools.
learn to drive faggot
Not an argument!
Practicing welding rn and fuck this one turned out nice god damn
Haha that wasn't even me bust seriously learn to drive faggot.
Torquing wheels to the incorrect setting.
Retardation
(I can't meme arrow on Google keyboard)
>there's an incorrect torque setting for wheels
As far as I have been able to discover there are only three torque setting for wheels:
>nah not tight enough ya dickhead the cunts gunna come lose
>yeah that'll do mate
>nah yah fucken fucked it mate big time
Doesn't matter if it's you or not lol, still not an argument
>2017
>Not torquing all wheel bolts and nuts to 120nm regardless of make or model
>Not gonna make it
I just fucking torque mine till the impact stops.
Never had a problem
>T. 9/16 lugs
