UB rod bolts.

rmf1066 · Mar 12, 2014

I'm starting to put my UB back together and have a manual to go off of but they don't talk about the castle nuts on the rod bolts. I have them torqued to specks but not all the holes line up. Is it better to be a little tight or a little loose on the rod bolts? Thanks.

I have always went a little extra on the tight side.

Thanks that's what I was thinking. This manual I'm using
doesn't go into detail on a lot of things and some things it tells
you to do doesn't make a lot of since to me like half the head
bolts get higher torque the the other half. Thanks again

I think there was a service bulletin on head bolt torque. Im sure if you ask specifically on here someone will know what and if it had been updated to.
