Hi LES 60+60 total 120 straight from LR manual good luck this time

Les,

From genuine manual:-

Lubricate bolts with light oil and torque to 40NM. Then 60 degree on all bolts, then 60 degrees.

I take it you've got the correct tightening sequence!

Cheers

Thanks guys,

40Nm 60 + 60 it is then, Yep got the right sequence

Here we go again hopefully for a bit longer this time

If it's any help mine got the 40nm then 60 deg then 60 deg treatment.

Good Luck Les-age.

Be great to see you at Tony's under your own (cloud of) steam!
