There is a torque and tightening sequence recommended in Autopress Ltd
workshop manual for Morgans (1936-1969). (copyright 1971)
The torque spec listed for TR2 is 60-65 ft-lbs while TR3/4/4A are all
100-105 ft-lbs.
Pardon the limited graphics. If this isn't clear enough, I can scan the
image and attach a .PCX, TIF, or BMP file to any direct email address who
wants it.
