    Default sorry

    Did some checking on the shop manual but they have no torque spec. There is a torque chart you can check but I have my torque wrench in my hands. They are nylock nuts so tighten as much as you can with short wrenches. Long handle wrenches or ratchets may over do it...

    Ummmmmm....
    I always install the new parts, with the same amount of effort, that it took to remove the old parts...
    Bascially; a shot in the dark!
    In my defense; I've not lost any parts off of anything, in a VERY long time...
    Sorry that I couldn't give you a hard and fast number!
