Coytee Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 I've got a 1/2" torque multiplier you can borrow. 1/2" input and 3/4" output. Outta do the trick for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Roger, you might ask AtlasIED, or ask if they have rebuild specs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rog I've had a bunch of them apart and together and always done it by feel. If you feel like digging, I'm sure there's a chart somewhere that shows torque by fastener size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl, If it gets bad, We are covered my buddy the big farmer packed up yesterday to ride it out in one of his Cabins he owns in Tenn., so I can always house sit his 4,500 acres or go to my Moms and ride it out. My buddies Driveway is 0.3 miles long and Moms is 0.4 miles long. Rog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
