Use the maker's torque, then check it again.

Re-check rack and tent fasteners after the first loaded drive and on the schedule the maker prints. TrailReady does not invent a torque number. Use the torque in the rack and tent manuals for the exact fastener. A loose bar is a load problem, not a style problem. Installation is not part of the kit.

Write down the torque and the date you checked it. A saved build in the browser is not that record.

Questions

Do you torque the rack for me?

No. Installation is not for sale. The manuals that ship with the parts are the torque source.
