After having some of the rear nuts loosen and cause damage to the stud threads on the rear hubs, I had to replace the studs. I had the old and replacement studs checked in the Materials Lab at work. They were equivalent in Rockwell hardness to Grade 8 bolts. I have noted in my workshop manual that the front studs (BJ8) measured 3/8-24. Standard torque for a Grade 8 3/8-24 bolt is 49 lb-ft, so that's what I torqued mine to when I changed the front brake rotors.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>Steve Byers</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>HBJ8L/36666</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>BJ8 Registry</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>AHCA Delegate at Large</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>Havelock, NC </span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Healeys [mailto:healeys-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Mike MacLean<br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, July 14, 2019 6:43 PM<br><b>To:</b> healeys@autox.team.net<br><b>Subject:</b> [Healeys] Torque Setting?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Is there a torque setting for the nuts that screw onto the hub studs to the disc brake rotor.
