Lug nut Torque specs for 2016 SS
Does anyone know what the torque specs are? Are they 140 like the 5th gen?

Wow! 140 seems like a lot. Hate to jack this thread but does anyone know the thread size of the lug nuts? Looking to get some locks.

Look in your manual. On my ZL1 it depends on what color they are. Sounds weird but they have two different ones, I think my studs are blue, not sure what the other color is but it list both in the manual and they are two different settings.

It's 140. There is an addendum page included with the owners manual that corrects the misprint of 110.

I always thought 140 was high on the 5th gens, the new Mustangs call for 150.

That's nuts! I don't even think my 1/2" torque wrench goes up to 150. I always use 100 for my Explorer.

If you have antisize on the threads make sure to reduce torque by 15%
But 140 is ok for m14 threads |
