Wheel nut tensions??
Hello, just about to buy a torque wrench to do my wheel nuts up properly so i don't get the surging motion under braking (5 bolt drums)
Can anyone tell me please what the correct tension should be though?
thanks

And keep going around until you've tightened ALL of them.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

If you tighten every 2nd one you will eventually tighten all of them
