Torque Spec's Trailer
I've got 1/2"x20 wheel studs, 8 per wheel, what should the torque be on the wheels? I always put them at 65#, and today a trailer place said they should be tighened to100#? I think that would stretch the stud ? Thanks........John

The sticker on the side of my trailer, with 1/2-20 studs, says to tighten to 110-120 lb-ft.
