I'm about to install a set of Westin Nerf Bars and it occrred to me that the cab-to-frame bolts have specific torque settings (so as not to distort the door alignment). Does anyone know what the torque value should be? (2010 Crew Cab 1500)

Thanks in advance!

 

Not a good practice to rely on what people will tell you,
go to a dodge dealer bodyshop and have them look up the correct spec and precedure in the bodyshop manual.

 

From the Service Manual. There's a caution too:

CAUTION: ** Whenever a body isolator bolts requires servicing or tightening, it is necessary to remove the bolt and install new thread locker compound to the threads.

 

Are you using the same bolts or does the kit have their own bolts???? Are they the same grade???

 

Thanks for the attachment !!!!! (and the tip)
I'll pick up some LokTite tonight.
