In case you need some more guidance to info on torque values: here's the post BigLowRider sent in a while ago for 2003 Dyna models in this thread: Printable list of Torque Values - 2003 Dyna

This document is for quick reference only, please consult your own service manual for verification. Torque Values are for 2003 Dyna models only. Remember to always disconnect your battery before servicing your motorcycle.

The attached file is in pdf format. It can be opened, saved, and printed with the Adobe Acrobat Reader, which comes free with most computers.
