lol....ok i guess it is as simple as 6 ....just wanted to be sure......i found a conversion calculator on the web, but i wanted to be sure it was as simple as it just being 6....thanx anyway guys!!!!

 

12 inch punds = 1 ft pound

 

12inch pounds is about 1 ft pound the correct method for doing the bands is as follows front adjustment band, back off lock nut 3-5 turns tighten band screw to 72 inch pounds prox 6ft pounds then back of band adjusting screw 3 5/8 turns keeping screw in same position tighten the lock nut to 30 ft pounds, rear is same as above but back screw out 4 turns then tighten rear nut to 25 ft pounds-----Hope that helps
