Strange... the thread was created but my post wasn't...

Anyway, I'm putting in a FSTB in my '03 tonight and was wondering if I should torque the nuts to 30 or 35 foot-pounds? I've read both in various "how to's" on the subject.

I know it's probably not a big deal either way, just trying to be a careful as possible.

Thanks!

Nissan recommends between 32 to 38 ft-lbs, so take your pick of a setting. I went with 34 ft-lbs.
