Camber Plate Hex Bolt Torque Spec? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Wondering if anyone knows if there is an actual torque spec for the 4 hex/allen key bolts on the sliding plate that adjust the front camber? I've searched but never found anyone mention this anywhere or is it tighten until nice and snug? I have some front Tein plates I need to put on my Agx's soon. Thanks!

Bump. So I must not be the only one who doesn't know an answer to this question?

Just snug them. They're not a very big bolt - I imagine the actual torque spec is somewhere in the 10-15 ft-lbs range given the size.

Unless you have a very nice torque wrench, it probably isn't accurate down to that low of a torque value, so just go by hand. It's actually more accurate if you are halfway thinking about how much force you are applying and the lever arm length.

tight is tight.

just as long as they dont move..you're good. if they move...tighten them down more.
