Default Torque Settings for Smittybilt SRC Rocker Guards

Hi all,

I'd like to hear from people wth Smittybilt SRC Rocker Guards (or XRC or SRC Side Armour or anyone that has used the factory side step bolts) and what torque setting they have used to install these?

The instructions outline that the factory side step bolts are used but don't give a setting. The response I got from the vendor who sold them to me was 'I would just do them up tight'

Thanks!

not everything has a torque setting, somethings just need the 'FT' setting (f'ing tight)

When I'm not sure I tighten bolts up until they strip then back them off half a turn
