Hey guys - any install frame sliders? I have heard rumor you should adhere to Honda's suggested Torque Setting when installing but I can find anything on this online. Any thoughts? If not - I'm just going to tighetn the bolts and wing it.

well the bolts for your frame sliders are your top engine mount bolts, so the torque would be -- 54ftlbs

WOAH!!!!!! the torque is NOT 54ftlbs........... It is 29 ftlbs. the lower engine mounts (aft bolts) are 40 ft lbs. Don't torque the frame sliders too tight as they go into the head and could easily strip. I suggest you get a manual on cd. I got mine on ebay for around $5.

That would have sucked. OK Thanks. I put the right side on and just hand cranked it - I didn't go har core on and will check with torque wrench later today - As for left side - will do it the right way.

Thanks,

Doug
