Thumbs down A NOTE TO EVERYONE WHO WORKED

if you had your wheels off today, remember to re-torque your wheels after 100 miles.

We don't want anyone watching their wheel sto go rolling by them

Everyone except the white AP2. He put them on using Matt's impact which is rated MUCH higher than 80 ft lbs.

Thanks Jerry. There are things a clueless car guy like me needs to know! Maybe I'll go buy a torque wrench.
