as far as seats.... dunno of specific torque spec.. just don't overtighten and break the bolt..

 

76 ft-lbs.. in a star pattern (your owners manual will tell you how to tighten them).. also after 1000 miles, it's recommended to re-torque.. I've seen this on the tC, and the owner's manual is right..

don't know the seats bolt torques.. sorry..

 

Nice - there are torque wrenches on sale at sears this week (w/ the craftsman card) for $50 .... 1/2 size.

 

That's expensive. I got mine for $20. 3/8ths drive though.

 

hehe - yea but craftsman makes a pretty good product. I plan on keeping it for a long time.

 

yeah i agree craftsman is good stuff.. i have the 1/2 drive torque wrench from Craftsman.. have to get it "calibrated" every year i hear.. i might do that this year..

 

how ...where ...do you go for that?


guy at work told me to just always keep it at 0 when not using it.

 

a sears parts service center will do it (fix appliances, electronics, etc).. i think you can find one by calling your local sears store or sears.com

 

do they charge? ..i would assume so.

 

yeah probably an hourly charge, i haven't done it yet.. but now you have me curious.. i'll have to contact them and find out..

 

please post when you find out.
