RE: [A/S] Airstream, PHD


Judy,
Be aware that there are now two different aluminum wheels being used on the
2005 Airstreams.  Are yours the ones with the round holes around the center
or the one with the wide spokes.  They have very different torque specs.
The round hole version should be torqued to 85ft lbs, while the wide spoke
type aluminum wheel needs 110-120 ft lbs (per A/S).  A/S seems to be using
the round hole wheels on the classics and CCDs and the wide spoke wheels on
the Safari and that would include non-CCD Bambis.
