Can’t seem to find this anywhere, looking for the torque specs on the Bronco’s crash bar bolts.
I’m upgrading my non-Sas Badlands to 35s and am thinking about getting these high-clearance crash bars, just for a bit of added on-road safety: https://www.iconvehicledynamics.com/accessory/18843/icon-accessories-21-up-bronco-crash-bars/

Anyone have a set of these, or recommend any other crash bars that will clear 35s?

Tighten until the bolt breaks, replace the bolt and tighten 1 lb ft less.

That'll be 27 Uggah Duggahs, and not one uggah duggah more than that. 😎

Use a 12" ratchet. Listen for your elbow to pop, when that happens, go a Lil further. When the shoulder pops, Your right where ya need to be.

Your results may differ from others!!
