The torque values for TIE RODS NUTS in the above chart are intended to be used with a torque multiplier.

The following procedure is the recommended procedure for tie rod torque and may be tightened to the specified torque using the following procedure (see figure A & B ).

1.Thread tie rod into lower nut by hand until it bottoms out. Then install the upper tie rod nut and install all the way down until contacts the top of the main accumulator, then hold the upper nut from turning and with a wrench turn just the tie rod until it has a gap as shown in figure B above (0 - 1.5mm / 0 - 0.059 in., top of tie rod flush or just below top of upper tie rod nut).

2.Pre-torque the upper tie rod nuts to 360 ft. lb. / 488 Nm using a cross pattern as shown in the illustration at the left.

3.Using the illustration as a guide, mark a line on each nut and designate it as (A).

4.Using the illustration as a guide, measure the degrees indicated in the chart, from point (A) to point (B) and make a mark near the nut. The degrees listed in (figure A) for turning the nut to achieve the final torque is listed as 120°-130°. Make a mark on one point of the nut and designate that point as (A). Measure 120°-130° degrees clock- wise from point (A) and make a mark next to the nut. Designate that point as (B). Turn the nut clockwise until point (A) and point (B) line up.

5.Continue this procedure in a cross pattern on all 4 nuts.
