Technical Strut to hub bolt torque setting?

[schumraid]

Evening folks,

Does anyone know the torque setting for the two bolts that join the front struts to the hub?

Thanks in advance!

eLEARN says 7 daNm but it also says for 10mm bolts. I think they ar 12mm bolts aren't they?

It's not a torque critical application, so anywhere between "tight enough that it can't move" and "not so tight that the bolt snaps" should do.

OR:

Tighten it until the bolt snaps, then back it off a quarter of a turn.

Thanks Davren, wasn't too sure if they had to be done to a specific torque setting or not (nothing to do with wanting to play with a new torque wrench, honest )

Oh and the bolts are 10mm

I tightened mine until I couldn't get any move movement on the nut, (bolt held by spanner and nut on a wind gun)
