Other
Socket Size Torque Spec
Front Tow Hook 15mm 45 lbs-ft
Fuel Tank Skid 18mm 65 lbs-ft
Lug Nut (Thread) 1/2" x 20 RH 85-110 lbs-ft
Lug Nut (Head) 19mm (3/4") 85-100 lbs-ft
Rear Tow Hook 18mm 65 lbs-ft
Trailer Hitch Bolts 18mm 65 lbs-ft

Some big mistakes in there........

If you torque the high pressure PS line to 300lbs-ft of torque your the man using a open end wrench.The hitch bolts are 100lbs-ft of torque and not 65,and the trans skid bolts being able to take 4500lbs-ft of toque is kinda far fetched for a M10x1.50 bolt.

That is far fetched even for a 1.25" NF bolt
And to think what it would take to apply 4500 LBFT
I know what it takes to apply 500
the torque wrench is 4' long
And a guy under 150# can not apply enough force to
make it click with out bouncing

I've done 3000lbs-ft before,not alone but with aid of 6 others with a 1" drive torque wrench that was 14' long.

Is it worth it to correct the bogus torque specs or is this sheet just garbage?

Hi. You should remove this info before someone causes catastrophic damage to their jeep. The manual specifically says do not tighten past 160 ft lbs on the pinion nut or you could destroy the bearing
This list says 210 ft lbs. Anyone that saw this and just went for it is going to be ******.
