Question:
Hi I have a 2014 Dutchmen/Colemen travel trailer. I believe I have 14 inch tires and 1/2 in. steel lugs. Do I use the 90-120 ft. lb torque star pattern? thank you for your support

Expert Reply:
Wheel torque specs vary based on stud diameter, wheel diameter and wheel material. The linked chart shows you commonly recommended torque specs for a range of studs and wheels.
For 1/2-inch wheel studs and a 14-inch steel trailer wheel you will use a torque range of 75-to-85-ft-lbs.
