    Can anyone give a suggested torque value for the front and rear U bolt nuts? (51 3100)

    Ray,

    Do you think this is a good guide for some of my stainless fasteners as well? Or is this just for U-bolts?

    Man, I just read some good threads about stainless on here. The numbers were surprisingly lower than the grade 5 and grade 8 numbers. They were similar to grade 2 numbers.

    Do a search, I bet if you search +stainless +bolts you'll find the thread I read. If you can't find it I can see if I can relocate it. I can't remember what I was searching for when I found it the first time.
