Tie bar torque settings

[baz69]

Hi all,have just replaced the bushes in the tie bars and am torquing them up ,one of the chaps gave me a setting of 38nm I think ,now just want to clarify the torque setting iam looking for is the bolts into bottom of engine case ,I have tightened them up to 25nm but I feel like they are going to turn into Swiss cheese just not comfortable the feeling iam getting tightening them is where you think it should click it's pushing on around a bit more ,maybe iam paranoid just want to be 100% sure on torque values.

38 Seems a bit high.
I don’t have the book close right now.

Someone will shortly.. I go with the feeling most of the times except with crank cases and head gaskets.

Make it up tight and recheck a few miles letter and I’m good to go..
