1991 LEXUS SC300 wheel bolt torque

5. Non±reusable parts(a) Always replace cotter pins, gaskets, O±rings and oilseals etc. with new ones.
(b) Non±reusable parts are indicated in the component
illustrations by the º º symbol.
6. Precoated parts Precoated parts are bolts and nuts, etc. that are coated with
a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
(a) If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or causedto move in any way, it must be recoated with the
specified adhesive.
(b) Recoating of precoated parts
(1) Clean off the old adhesive from the bolt, nut or threads.
(2) Dry with compressed air.
(3) Apply the specified seal lock adhesive to the bolt or nut threads.
(c) P re co a te d pa rts are in d ica te d in th e co m ponent
illustrations by the º
º symbol.
7. When necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent leaks.
8. Carefully observe all specifications for bolt tightening
torques. Always use a torque wrench.
9. Use of special service tools (SST) and special service materials (SSM) may be required, depending on the nature
of the repair. Be sure to use SST and SSM where specified
and follow the proper work procedure. A list of SST and SSM
can be found in the preparation part at the front of each
section in this manual.
10. When replacing fuses, be sure the new fuse has the correct
amperage rating. DO NOT exceed the rating or use one with
a lower rating.
11. Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the proper
locations (See page IN±33).
(a) If the vehicle is to be jacked up only at the front or rear end, be sure to block the wheels at the opposite end in
order to ensure safety.
(b) After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it on
stands. It is extremely dangerous to do any work on a
vehicle raised on a jack alone, even for a small job that
can be finished quickly.
