    Anyone know what the torque spec for the lug nuts on an 86 GTS are? I don't have an owners manual and I have searched for ever on google and haven't found an answer.

    Thanks!

    It's not a lot
    Tighten with a cross wrench and then nip them 45 deg, that's all

    The bolts only hold the rim to hub, the hub locator ring does all the work, not the bolts.

    The retard who stripped the TEMS studs must have thought he needed a pipe and powerbar
    cause he saw some trucker fitting a wheel, but trucks are different in that they don't
    have a locator ring
