Torque 'em to 100. Then torque
You have that wrench? You could have told me that the next time you turn torque to yield bolts, you would record the angles for me.
Instead, we have 6 pages of dogpiling and clowning.
Great mechanics here, eh? -

The time you have spent putting people down in this thread who are trying to help,you could have had the bolts torqued & the oil pan on.
swaan, PE_T, Rideandrepair and 10 others Thank this. -
What y'all have is a cozy, fuzzy club, and I don't fit in.
All I wanted was information on torque and turn, and all I've heard is that it can't be done on a Detroit.
Most of the responses have been, USE A TORQUE WRENCH USE A TORQUE WRENCH!
How many times do you people need to hear that I know what a torque wrench is and that if I wanted to use a torque wrench I would use one.
I came here to find information about an alternative method.
Information! That's what I wanted.
One fellow posted information relevant to my inquiry.
I followed through on it and learned something.
Now I know that a torque and turn method can be used on Detroit main bearings as effectively as on Caterpillar main bearings.Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
PE_T, Rideandrepair, Roberts450 and 8 others Thank this.
