110 is the torque for all LX's including non SRT8's. I couldn't find it anywhere for the Jeep myself and asked at one of the SRT Engineers chat sessions. It's the same.

Looks like you need to read at www.wkjeeps.com also
Rambit 03-15-2010, 05:32 PM From past chat sessions:
The lug nut torque specification for the LX SRT8 wheels is listed as "115 lbs". For some odd reason the only spec that the Jeep service manuals list is "100 Lbs. +/- 15" and is not noted as being SRT8-specific. Is 115 the correct torque spec for the Jeep?
You should follow the torque spec that is in the Jeep service manual for the SRT8 Jeep. The factory spec is indeed 100 ft-lbs +/- 15, so nominal is 100 ft-lbs.
Jesus, I do have a question after all. What's the lug nut torque for the Jeep? I torqued them to 110 ft lbs like the LX's. Is that correct?
Glad to here you are loving the vehicle. I will let Gord know. We know it took a while to get that system out for you. Thanks for hanging in there. BTW, I am told the lug nut torque is 100-110 ft lbs.
RS has the complete Chat Sessions in pdf format available for download.

LOL :D Maybe the third time will be the charm. I think it's called reading comprehension or something like that.......Kinda hard to miss. I've always thought that I should of started years ago with a welcome post to anyone who has ever joined here telling them to save "WK" to their favorites as soon as they join.
Absolutely invaluable site.
So I guess Bernie's informative post about chat sessions etc., falls directly in line with what WK simply states in their info. Well alrighty then.......:)
Glad it was all cleared up CMN.....

Actually he's a personal friend of mine and I know the site well and it's one of the BEST resources.

Oh, I know, but are you not allowed to reference it?
Rambit 03-15-2010, 05:54 PM Oh, I know, but are you not allowed to reference it?
Sure, and I have many times.
Bernie

I don't think I have ever seen you type the website in a post. Do the owners not want you to promote it?

It's not a problem. All the TSB's are hosted there as well.

jpaine 03-15-2010, 06:00 PM Geez Guys....Sorry to bother everyone with this again....I/ve had numerous large trucks with 20" wheels and 95# was the spec. After the first smart as....answer about tightening until it snaps and then back off 1/2 turn, I was wanting to double check....and didn't find that information on the wk website,....maybe because I didn't make a paypal donation as they requested. I'm beginning to wonder if this forum is really about constructive help, and or criticism or just a forum to see who can be the biggest smart as.............! Thank You to any one that really seems to give a poop!....J

Paying money has nothing to do with it. I never have. I posted the exact link and pasted the info from the site in my post #8. We like to help but sometimes instead of asking the basic questions you should use that site and actually read. You were given the answer several times plus given links to find the info. If that isn't constructive you are way too sensitive.
