hi, just wondering if anyone knows the torque specs of the nuts that hold the shanks on the bucket. The bolts are 3/4”. I bought new shanks and teeth and want to install them this weekend. Any help would be appreciated.

I usually use 3/4 drive ,2’ pipe ,3grunts and call it good.
My choice 1" rattle gun until stop moving. Kind of hard on the helper holding the bolt!
Should be a plow bolt. No helper required
You don't know my Helpers, is always Me, Myself and I all three hanging on that 1". And Yes I am fully aware are plow bolts. Only so many hands to hold the bolt head in with the less than friendly threaded ones while running the gun with my helpers.
I feel your pain. Perhaps a healthy tack weld would “help”
Ain't that the truth!
Tight as you can get them and half a turn more. That's probably the same bolt used on a 963. I break them on a regular basis pushing brush. Five foot pipe on a breaker bar in the field, one inch impact at the shop. You can't get them to tight I don't think. I've never broke one tightening them.
