Mantec plate torque settings??

[zbysiu23]

Does anybody remember the torque setting for instalation of the mantec skid plate??
Going for an oil change and need to take it off and put it back on later..

I just cranked it on there as hard as I could. There weren't any specific settings in the installation instructions that came with it.

I think it was ~602 lb/in if remember...

 

[Boaz]

I just looked at the instructions, and the only number on there is "68Nm" pointing to the bolts. Don't know what that means.

1 Lb-Ft = 1.35582 Nm, 68 Nm = 50 Lb-Ft, give or take.

 

[zbysiu23]

which is give or take 602 Lb/In....
Thank you guys I just was not sure...

 

[zbysiu23]

Nm is a Newton metre and it is a unit of torque in SI it equals more or less by dimension to joule yet the energy by means of torque would not be expressed in joules thus the Nm

1 Nm = 8.8507 IN/FT
1Nm = 0.73756 FT/LB
