Lug nut Torque???
Hello all....... In the middle of a brake job. Just replaced all rotors & pads. Rotated tires, and started to tighten the lugs when I realized i want to try out my new torque wrench (bought a year ago, only used twice!) What is the proper lug torque on a 2005 4wd limited???
Thanks for all your help.

Do yourself a favor and throw a little "salt over the shoulder" for grins. Use a two-step torque method, torquing the lugs down to 80-85ft lbs on your first criss-cross rotation, then to 160ft lbs.
This supposedly helps eliminate any rotor bind which can cause rotor warp issues.
