dmulhall Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hey guys, do any of you have a service manual handy that shows what to torque the rod bearing nuts to? I didnt think that 108 foot pounds was right, I got that off of an old friend of mine. thats alot of stress on a 1/2 inch nut.. Thanks guys, Dave Mulhall I should be taking pictures of the old bearings to show you guys.. surprized it ran as good as it did... totally gone...right down to copper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merle Coggins Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I used these specs when I built my engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodFitch Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 The various torque specifications I have dug up are at: http://www.ply33.com/Repair/torque The ones from the 1946-54 service manual (last column in my table) are probably the ones you are most interested in.

Don G 1947 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Todd, I have a '47 Dodge WC (218). Do you think the specs would be the same as those listed for Plymouths passenger cars? Thanks, Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Don Don't see why not. Basically the same engine putting out about the same amount of power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
