SUBJECT:
INFORMATION ON ACHIEVING PROPER WHEEL NUT TORQUE


Obtaining proper wheel nut torque is made both easier and faster by using the torque adapters from the attached information. These adapters are designed to absorb any additional torque applied by your pneumatic wrench beyond their designed value. This unique feature makes it possible to eliminate the need to tighten wheel nuts with a torque wrench, eliminating the potential for over-torqued wheel nuts.

Torque adapter set J-39544, consisting of three adapters, is necessary to properly service all Cadillac vehicles. An application chart for Cadillac and other GM vehicles is also included. Dealers wishing to purchase these kits or individual adapters may use the attached order form. Additional order forms are available by calling Kent-Moore at 1-800-345-2233.

We believe this source and their equipment to be reliable. There may be additional manufacturers of such equipment, however, General Motors does not endorse indicate any preference for, or assume any responsibility for the products or equipment from these firms or for any such items which may be available from other sources.
