Urgent Diagnosis help needed
Xtremeteam:
yeh,i dunno exactly what my guns at at no 2 but on 4 its 400nm+,when im doin a diff change at an event i use a battery impact gun which goes to 100nm
gords:
Is it worth tightening the bolts to a higher torque, considering that I used instant gasket type stuff (supplied by Land Rover spares)? Does it "go off" to a hard state?
I suppose it's worth a try first...
Xtremeteam:
the gasket will go off but will be rubbery so its flexible,if you dnt have acces to air tools id just do them up tight with an 1/2inch drive ratchet same with the halfshaft bolts
gords:
I don't have air tools, but I do have a torque wrench. I must admit - I'm a tad scared of snapping off a stud 8-[
Is it best to circulate around the nuts to build up the tightness gradually? Or is there a particular pattern to follow?
