Re: Torque Specifications Rear Hatch??
The following from my 85 shop manual.
Panel to Compartment Glass Assembly. CAUTION: Torque of 11 ft-lb must be maintained when tightening retaining nuts, panel to glass or glass breakage and personal injury could result. Personal protection items such as safety glasses and work gloves should be worn to minimize possible personal injury.
1. Tighten retaining nuts in the following order:
Forward center
Rear center
All remaining nuts
