What does it call for on the torque settings? I know the 3/4 -1 tons ar 90 ft lbs then back off 90* then around 180-200 ft lbs for the outers. Thats where I set mine to and have never had one come off yet and I am running 37" tsl's.

Book calls for 150 ft-lbs, it's just not enough with the weight of big tires. 225 and no problem.

I bought a bigger torque wrench today, I am currently doing the hub swap, need a bigger magnet, apperently a fridge magnet is not enough

:EDIT:
Turns out a fridge magnet is strong enough!
Got the first one on!
