Rennline rear tie down - torque specs
I installed the front and rear Rennline tie down on my 7.1 GT3 but couldn't find the torque specs anywhere about tightening the rear cross-member bolts. I found a thread in the 991 GT3 section but the diagrams are not quite the same. The bolts were tight as hell and hard to loosen, so I tried to crank them back tight. . . !
Anyone have the rear cross-member bolt torque handy? Do people replace the bolts when installing these tie downs? Thanks in advance. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...a5e2227a80.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...4956961dc2.jpg |
That is not where I would mount the tie down on the rear. I would mount them where the cross member bolts to the side frames. I think the bolt torque on the cross member to side frame is around 80 ft-lbs, but I will check my log book tonight and let you know.
|
The torque spec on the M12x1.5 bolts (cross member to side frames, and diagonal braces to cross member) is 81 ft-lb.
|
Agreed, do not put the tie downs at that location.
|
Oh! Good to know and thank you. Would either of you have a picture with the mount in the correct location?
|
I found the 991 thread on these tie downs and there's a post from RENNLINE suggesting that the location I installed is correct (or at least correct for 991)??? See thread below:

This is also a photo from rennline. This is the location I used. These are on the Fore/aft bolts that secure the engine cradle into the subframe. |
AutoWerks, ... So to be clear,... if we use smq42's pic from his first post, are you showing this bolt? (yellow pointer) ?
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...8946ef792a.jpg I may want to do this someday too,... so thanks in advance for the clarification. =Steve |
Yes, that's what I used.

Use the yellow mounting point or you'll bottom out on everything!
