The pad was tight when I took it off and the bolts and nuts looked like they were just put on. Still oily. I couldn't find my torque wrench so I snugged them with about an 18" long bar and guessed about 70 ft./lbs. Tight but didn't reef on it. Then I turned them an additional third of a turn. Used about a 2' foot snipe and just over 1/3rd of a turn was about as tight as they'd go. I think they should be good but I'll monitor them when I'm doing some work with the loader.
