replacing rear beam bushes on axle stands?

[Touring_Rob]

I think it would be very useful for others in the future

But your brake lines look fucked.

Have you still got the opposite side bolted up to the car while that one has been dropped?

Not sure of its clear in the picture. Both sides dropped onto a second set of axle stands. They are still hanging by the shocks.

Does anyone know the correct torque settings for the 6 bolts holding the mounts to the body and the 2 bolts holding the beam ?
I found 1 post saying 60Nm. Is this correct?

 

[DomP182]

I'm pretty sure 60nm is what I did mine to.

 

[JamesBryan]

Yeah 60

Or just FT

Car is back on its wheels! Thanks everyone for the help and information!

I used high tensile m10 capheads with a washer to spread the load and a washer and nyloc on the underside

120mm from memory

What nuts and washers did you use @DomP182 ?? I have found the correct bolts you linked earlier in the thread? I have just dropped my new/second hand beam off at the blasters

Pardon our interruption...

I think those links above haven't actually shown the sizes I used Russ but M10 x 1.5 nuts and I think I would M10 20mm washers not sure what form though c or b?

Cheers mate, I’ll get ordering

Remember to get correct grade of nuts and washers to match the bolt

 

[RustyMojo]

That was kind of my question really. Bolts are the easy part. Are you suggesting the nuts that Dom linked are not the right grade? If not can you share a link?
