lug nut torq spec

[wjjeeper]

I looked in the owner's manual and searched here, but found no answer.
Is 85ft/lb sufficient for the lug nuts?

 

[SVT GT]

I remember reading it somewhere that it was 100ft/lbs

hmmm... all the charts I find online list 75-85

Wheel Tech - Wheel Lug Torquing

But it does seem a little "light" to the touch.

The Ford Manuel states 95 ft/lbs, however, I just dial up the torq wench to 100 ft/lbs and leave it at that. Never broke a lug and never had lug nut come off. Works for me!
