Mechanic tip 01
Tip of the day for those who don't know or who are getting started!
When reinstalling wheels on your car/truck,
Never torque the wheels to spec without the weight of the car/truck on them.
Meaning: reinstall wheels, snug up the wheel nuts, lower car on the ground so the full weight of the vehicle is on the wheels, and finally torque to spec.
Why?: The vehicle's weight evenly distributes pressure across the hub, ensuring all studs are equally loaded and preventing uneven stresses that can damage studs or warp the wheel.
For any other tips or questions, don't be shy to send me a message!
