Steering Wheel Nut Torque

Kailec · 12-05-2017, 06:07 AM

Hey all, does anyone know how much torque is required when securing the steering wheel in place? Going to be installing my new one and wanted to lock it in properly, but not sure how much torque is required.

IIRC it was 40ft-lbs for my M-Perf V2 wheel (should be the same for all).

Make sure you don't bust the nut
