Lug Nut Torque

I know I've seen it here before but now that I need it I can't find it. So...what's the torque value for lug nuts on an 04 F250/350 with factory aluminum wheels? Thanks in advance!

I believe it is 150 ft. lbs. Your manual should state it?. Or maybe the door sticker?. I read it somewhere before.

Nothing in the manual or on the door jamb sticker but 150 sounds about right. Thanks again guys.

I do believe the 150 ft/lbs was uppped to 165 ft/lbs around 2002.

Take care

The manual for my 2005 says 150 ft lbs. Is there a TSB that revises that?
