Anyone else have this problem with their s10? This has happened to one of my friends twice and now to me... He says its common but i wanted to ask you guys

 

Mine always seem to get tighter. I tighten them up to about 45 ft. lb. then tighten them to 95, I believe that's where they're supposed to be.

 

well id rather have them get tighter than get loose and fall off... we are lucky we just stopped at a stop sign and weren't going 75... im sure this never happens to most of the people on here because most of the blazers on here are well taken care of

 

I just looked it up.I was wrong on that torque.

I just found this, so i guess I was right. lol

Wow did not know there was a torqueing sequence... just hand tighten them and used my torque wrench from walmart. Next time I'll do the 60, 80, 100ft/lbs. Learn something everyday on this forum!

 

I always torqued mine to 100 ft/lbs and never had a problem with them falling off.

 

ur good at 80 ft lbs!

 

I've wrecked 4 lug nuts by rounding the edges trying so hard to get them off, so no, they aren't coming loose. lol

 

thanks guys. im looking for 4 new rims if anyone has any for cheap. the spare is oogly
