Common Mistakes to Avoid
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Over-tightening
Exceeding the specified torque value can stretch or break fasteners, damage threads, or crack components.
Prevention:
Always use a calibrated torque wrench and follow specifications exactly.
Incorrect Torque Sequence
Tightening bolts in the wrong order can cause uneven pressure distribution and potential leaks or damage.
Prevention:
Follow the manufacturer's specified torque sequence pattern.
Dirty Threads
Dirt, rust, or old thread locker can affect torque readings and proper fastener tension.
Prevention:
Clean and inspect all threads before assembly. Use new thread locker if specified.
Reusing TTY Bolts
Torque-to-yield bolts are designed to stretch and must not be reused.
Prevention:
Always replace TTY bolts with new ones. They are single-use only.
Dry vs. Lubricated
Not accounting for whether torque specs are for dry or lubricated fasteners can lead to incorrect tension.
Prevention:
Check if specs are for dry or lubricated threads. Use specified lubricant when required.

Service Procedures
Tightening Cylinder Head Bolts
Technical procedure specific to the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram-1500
- Clean and lubricate the bolt threads.
- Hand-tighten the bolts until they are snug.
- Tighten the bolts to 110 Nm (81 ft-lb) in the sequence specified in the service manual.
- Retighten the bolts to 130 Nm (96 ft-lb) in the same sequence.
- Allow the bolts to cool for 30 minutes.
- Retighten the bolts to 150 Nm (110 ft-lb) in the same sequence.
- Safety considerations and warnings:
- Use a torque wrench to ensure that the bolts are tightened to the correct torque specifications.
- Do not overtighten the bolts, as this can damage the threads or the cylinder head.
- Allow the bolts to cool for 30 minutes before retightening them, as this will help to prevent the bolts from loosening.
