Slider install: Torque recommendations?

oldskoolboarder · 01-12-2007, 11:31 PM

I just received my Demello sliders today. I was going to install them but it requires a 1/2" socket. For my current kit, I only have a my 1/2" socket only fits a 1/4" drive. Gotta find one tomorrow w/ a 3/8" drive.

Does anyone know what the recommended torque is? I have a torque wrench I could use but not sure what setting I'd have to use.

Anyone?

I used a 3/8s drive and set them tight, way tight, and then in a week checked them, they were all stil way tight, but poundage? no idea

Yep 22 ft. lbs. it seems kinda light I actually had to back off on some of the bolts and retorque because I got a little excited with the regular socket wrench.
