For what it is worth the original MGA workshop manual they say the following with regard to wheel nuts "Tighten the nuts to a torque wrench reading of 60 to 62,5 lb. ft (8,3 to 8,65 kg. m.). Do not overtighten." I do wonder would these settings change over the years due wear and tear on the bolts? And lastly the front end wheel clunk experienced on my MGA was due to the break shoes being incorrectly fitted and adjusted. '57 MGA 1500 Safety Fast |
