Lug nut torque spec

[ALL3-500HP]

Does anyone know the correct torque specs for the lugnuts on our trucks? I did a search and come up with different numbers, anywhere from 90 to 135 ft/lbs

 

[JRSVIPR]

Not positive,But i believe it is 120 ft.lbs.Maybe someone else will chime in.

i dont know exact spec but ive always just went with 90. Even now with the aluminum lug nuts i bought i tq to 90ft pds

The OEM lugs I bought from Dodge say 90ft lbs. Hopefully thats correct, because at 150 mph it wouldnt be a good mistake!!

 

[ALL3-500HP]

Well I torqued them to 110 ft/lbs, do you guys think thats ok or should i re-torque them?

 

[rare03srt10]

Im sure you will be fine. Leave it as it

Page 235, Sect 6 of the 2005 Owner's Manual....

"Using the wheel wrench, finish tightening the nuts using a crisscross pattern. Correct nut tightness is 90–110 ft. lbs. (125–150 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your dealer or at a service station."
