Title: Alloy s3 8p hub carrier.
Post by: s3dubbin on August 24, 2016, 01:53:24 pm

Needing a little bit of info if anyone can help. Does anyone know the torque setting for the s3 alloy hub carrier? The main one that clamps the strut. I am fitting my bilsteins and don't want to over tighten the alloy. I see 52lbsft and then 90deg but no idea if that is even close.

Thanks, Stevie.

Can anyone help. I checked Haynes but that must be for steel?

Thanks.
