lupo_jack Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I have recently gone lower and used washers for camber. When i had done all that i obv tightened all myWheel bolts back up (tight enough). that aside a week later i heard a noise coming the from rear left wheel, so i just checked then and found that it was loose wheel bolts which confused me and then i noticed a wheel bolt MISSING! So i then thought can camber cause bolts too loosen? Which seems a reasonable question. OR i am actually thinking someone is f**king around took one of my bolts (newest shiney) one and loosened all my rears. I checked my front bolts aswell and they are fine. What you guys think and please no sarcasm, is quite a serious point.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggled Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 If you are tightening wheel bolts the general advice is to check them a few days to a week later and re-torque them.Washers for camber is pretty ghetto and gonna stress the hell out of your wheel bearings.

madmanncfc Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Thats happened to me before too. Id replace the bolt re tighten nice and tight and keep checking them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo_jack Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Is it different if its alloy or steels? Because i have banded steels. I will torque them tomorrow to 110Nm i think i can get hold of one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
