Default Torque Spec...

I replaced my brake pedal with an extended one from Kur last night and now I am in search of the TS for the 3x 5/16 hex bolts that are used to mount the rear master cyl assy onto the frame. Again they are 5/16 so I am guessing around 20 ft lbs. Does this sound right?

Oh and before all the GET A SVC MANUAL people start chiming in, I have had one on order since March 2nd and its FINALLY suppose to ship out today from New Castle HD. Its been a while LOL

2021 FLHTK

Thanks

Manual for my 20 RK states there are two bolts with a torque spec of 126-150 in-lbs.

Not sure why the master was pulled to swap out a brake lever but that’s none of my business lol

Did not remove the MC itself. It was the engine mount that the MC is mounted too, Its 3x 5/16 bolts. Took all of 15 min to change out to the new pedal

Does this look like what you need? Sometimes it's nearly impossible to find things in the FSM. 42-48 ft lbs

Yeah maybe the engine mount cap screws number 2 in pic. 13 is the bracket I removed. About double what I thought for a 5/16 but I will look at it when I get home.

Thanks. Be so glad when I get the manual....ughhh

702 has you covered. Your reference to 5/16 was throwing me off, they're 3/8.
