Post Torque specs

Does anyone have the torque specs for the wheels? Need to rotate the tires.

The specs are different for the 99's and the 00's...

The 99's are @ 100 ft.lbs.

I THINK the 00's are @ 125?!?

BTW, torque down your wheels often... just checked mine and they were loose... not fall off the truck loose, but definetly not at 150 lbs.

I know a loose wheel has happened to a 00 owner up here, I suggest you check on that...

The best reassurance is to check the service manual at a dealer. The '99 L is 100 lbs/ft (12mm), the '00 L is 150 lbs/ft (14mm).
