I have a general question that seems kind of simple, but need some wisdom. I rotated the triangles to lower the rear and it calls for 32ft lbs. When I took the bolts off they were stuck pretty well. Upon putting them back in and bolting them back together it seems to take more than 32 ft lbs to snug them against the triangles before tightening. Part of my problem is that I have a new torque wrench and am questioning its acuracy in light of these findings. Secondly, it seems that so long as you don't strip the bolts tight would not be bad as I can't see them needing to rotate a whole lot. Guess would rather over than under tighten.
Any opinions, besides that I am asking a stupid question, would be appreciated. :rolleyes:
