      *a Torque Wrench Fulcrum Length

      Using SST, install the nut to the engine mounting insulator LH.

      SST
      09961-00950
      Torque:
      Specified tightening torque
      95 N*m  { 969 kgf*cm, 70 ft.*lbf }

      Note


      • This torque value is effective when SST is parallel to the torque wrench.

      Tech Tips


      • Calculate the torque wrench reading when changing the fulcrum length of the torque wrench.
