Torque specs for i3040

Alaska247 · Oct 23, 2016

Hello!
I'm hoping someone can help me with LS recommended torque specs. I had to replace the part that is used to connect the 3PH stabilizer to rear axle. These bolts are also used to secure the ROPS to the rear axle. They are 14mm grade 10.9 bolts, so I'd assume normal torque would be something like 110 lbs-ft. But I'd like to use LS recommendation if they exist.

Thanks in advance!

Metric Bolt Torque Table - CNCexpo.com This chart reads about the same as what is in my JD manual.

Thanks Jim, that's pretty much what I use as well, if I don't have manufacturers recommendations. I have seen instances where the manufacturer recommended lower torque number though, like "torque to 80% of bolt torque values". So was hoping to double check with someone that has a service manual. Guess I should probably just get one for myself.
