    Another tip: make sure your spacers are hub centric meaning the inner bore of the spacer seats up to the bore on the hub correctly. This will allow for a secure fitment along with making sure there’s no odd vibrations or shakes

      Mine has a hub bore compatible but idk if that means it’s hub centric or not this is my first time with these wheel spacers

    @1:47 lubricating lug nuts or bolts means that you can tight them in the proper torque range. Otherwise, they can be loose tighttened or overtorqued. You just need to have the wet torqe specs of the bolt or nut
    In industry, most of the heavy duty bolts or nuts have lubricating instructions before torque'ing them to the specs with molybdenum grease or similar.

      Many greases shouldn’t be used around brakes because of heat related properties.. Always check for high temp

    F.Y.I. you need to add 3 to 5 ft lbs to the torque wrench setting when you add a extension or a reduction extension while setting torque like you did to the socket because you did not have a 1/2 socket . Your torque spec will be off by that much if you use these . Dont sound like much ,But your life could depend on that wheel staying on that car . For all the want to be mechanics on here that will say Im a dumb azz , Well that is true BUT . Question Does your Impact wrench have more power with a extension and socket or with socket alone ?

    I always wondered if a person torqued the spacer to rotor at the vehicles torque specs. Then the wheel to the spacer torqued at the spacers suggested specs. Like my RAM has a lug nut torque spec of 135 ft lb but my spacers torque spec is 83 ft lbs. Any thoughts about this? I took my truck to a local tire shop to balance the wheels and they wanted to torque the wheel to the spacer at 135 because that's the federal law that they have to follow. So I torqued them myself and signed a waiver

    • @milsgarage
