• All torque values shown are for bolts (cap screws) and nuts that are either zinc-
plated or lubricated.
• Torques shown above apply only to screws and nuts used for assembly and
installation of all carrier components, not to the chassis.
• Different torque values may be given in instructions for certain components due to
short thread engagement or low-strength internal threads.
• When nuts are used, tighten nuts to torques shown (screws or bolts should be
held but not turned). Always use a calibrated torque wrench.
• Retighten nuts of all mounting screws that secure the carrier and carrier-body
within 30 days after putting the vehicle into service. Thereafter, inspect and
retorque such screws and nuts every 90 days and after each job that imposes
extremely heavy loads on the equipment.

Multiply: by: to get:
