Rear Trailing Arms

[drum]

While I was fitting cones to the 110, I also replaced the trailing arms with Heavy Duty Cranked ones etc. However I notice today the backend feels abit loose. I reckon that maybe some of the bushes aren't done up tight enough. I replaced all the bushes on the arms with new Bearmach Polyboshes, while I was under there. Anybody know how tight the bolts should be, expecially the big one threaded onto the end of the arm.

Are we talking 2', 3' or 4' Scaffold Pole on the breaker bar?

Did you go from standard rubber ?   If so, you might just be feeling the difference in the bush material.

I'll see if I can find the torque settings for them....

Yes it was standard Rubber before, and all the other bushes, apart from those on the rear arms are still standard ruber at the moment.

I found a figure of 176Nm on the web does this sound about right?


That's within the range of my Torque Wrench so I won't need the coversion to the scaffold bar scale  :D

They were both about an 1/8 of a turn off not sure how much difference that'll make.
