Loose nuts !!!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

500bhp:
Sorry wasn't sure if those figures refered to alloys or steel wheels......so its 128nm for steels on Disco 1 ?

Xtremeteam:
thats what it quotes in the autodata manual
will check for certain tommorow,im sure its 128 for both steel & alloy wheels

Range Rover Blues:
Don't he factory alloys have a flat surface, protected by an encapsulated washer on the nut?

Jimbo:
I went from 18" alloys to 16" alloys - so assuming that the bolts used are the same, the angle on the mating face should be the same ?

I've had another thought - there was a liberal coating of copper grease on the hubs when I removed the 18" wheels (thoughtfully applied by the stealer at the last service), the shape of the 16" is different to the 18" wheels - perhaps I didn't clean enough of the grease off before fitting the 16's...... :oops:  :oops:
