Default Torque for prop bolts


"Kyle Boatright" wrote

I'd stick with changing washers, bolts, or nuts to achieve the spec'd

torque
value. Torque limits are defined for a reason.


I am absolutely against absolute statements. g

I would have to say a little commons sense has to apply, here.

If the specified torque is 75 foot pounds, and it would line up if you went
to 76 foot pounds, go for it. Your torque wrench could be out of spec that
much, and it would still be legal.
