Rear U-Bolts torque spec? 6.7 SRW 4x4

What's the Rear U-Bolts torque spec? 6.7 SRW 4x4.

I looked up 185ft-lbs, but when I dial that into my torque wrench and start torquing it seems really high. I'm not even to 160 yet and I think I'm too high already. I'm thinking the 185 is for a DRW.

Anyone know what the spec is for a SRW?

Yeah...185 seems more like lug torque.

12" breaker bar with a 14" pipe on the end till tight. Idk what ft lbs it was but it works. Still tight.

165 is lug nut torque

Yep. Looked it up...thought 185 seemed high, but I looked for a SRW. I'll most assuredly defer to others on DRW, but either of those sounds way high for u-bolt torque...way high.

Even Berman's skinny 150 pound ass on a 24" total length breaker/cheater combo would produce 300 ftlbs as I understand the theory.

Edit...fvck...for some stupid reason I had u joint bolts in my head...sorry guys. I can see 185 for u-bolts...:slap:
