Pressure plate bolts torque spec?
I’ve been trying to install my south bend stage 2 daily clutch. Read online that the pressure plate bolts should be torque to 26 ft pounds with an star pattern just like the flywheel.
Tried on two separate occasions. Starting with 5ft to 15ft to 26ft. The bolts break, leaving the threaded part of the bolt stuck on the flywheel. Any suggestions? I’ll be trying a different torque wrench next. ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

26 pounds is not much, you shouldn't be able to break a bolt at that torque. Did it feel like you were applying significant force?

Not at all. I’m not going at an angle either I keep one hand on the head of the wrench and the other applying the force.
There is definitely something wrong now since this is the second time this has happened. I’m thinking maybe is the torque wrench Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Since this has happened to me once before I made sure my torque wrench was clicking beforehand. I found a dealership who has 4 in stock near by. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t doing anything abnormal, because I’ve yet seen anyone post about this. Surely I’m doing something incorrect, right..? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
