I'm not convinced that applying too much torque to the lugs necessarily warps rotors either. When I got my D, the lugs were tightened to over 200 ftlbs. I had to go buy a breaker bar to get the lugs free, and even so, ended up bending the metal on one the lugs. Still, I haven't experienced any warped rotor problems. Just that #@$! squeal!! 1537 On Tue, 30 Oct 2001 11:03:32 -0800 (PST) E Grauff <datamonk@xxxx> writes: > Actually if anyone used an air-ratchet to put on your front wheels > that > could do it also.
