Wheel Torque Specs
#1
#3
I just picked up a 2006 Suzuki Ozark to use as a pit bike and was reading through the manual and it says to torque both front and rear wheels at 43 lb-ft. Due to my background in racing I'm a firm believer in using a torque wrench on all of my wheels and then re-torquing them again in 50 miles.
Wheel studs can be stretched by too much torque such as that provided by a high air pressure controlled impact wrench. If you do it by feel check to see exactly what your feel is with a torque wrench, you might be surprised that it may not be what is called for.
