Sound correct? Didn't find it in the sticky.

14 ft-lbs. for the small strap bolts. Knock that down to 12 ft-lbs. if you are applying blue Loctite to the threads as should be done. Personally I use a small 8mm combination wrench or 1/4" ratchet wrench and just get it good and tight with my hand with the torque wrench left in the box.

Thanks.

My usual also, but just checking for the guesstimate.

Well said Jerry- those things need barely any torque-
