Lug nut Torque

I just undercoated my rear wheel wells so I removed both rear tires and noticed the lug nuts where looser than expected. I looked them up an everyone is stating 150 ft lbs. I put the torque wrench on the fronts and they where around 100lbs from the factory.

Probably had this Ford Factory mechanic looking over your truck



Nothing to worry about, they are trained and certified.

I'm not sure if you're asking a question but it's 150.

I guess I was just informing the group that my wheels where not torqued from the factory correctly.

you are suppose to re torque aluminum wheels after the first few thousand of miles. They settle and loosen up slightly. I think 100ft lbs is probably still good to go.

Part of the required dealer pre-delivery inspection is to check the lug nut torque. The exact spec is 147 ft. lbs.

So now you are overtorqued at 150

Believe someone posted up a picture out of the owners manual that the torque is 150ft lbs on the Gen2 also.

Can you post where in the owners manual that it shows 147?
