Here is what I found....
The torque is not listed in my D8K Service Manual showing tilt cylinder 8J8682
Looking at the tilt cylinder for a D8H 7J0192 it uses a 1-1/8"-7tpi bolts and the head torque indicates 800 ft. lbs. +/- 100 ft. lbs.
This is for a #5M0544 bolt. If the 8J8692 cylinder uses the same bolts that's the torque. From what I can make out it does in fact use the same bolt.
Thank you Sir for the reply. There is nothing in my service manual either. I know it's a lot of torque. It took my 4020 John Deere tractor loader to break the bolts loose!!! I will look up part numbers on SIS 2 tomorrow and see if bolt numbers are the same.
👍🤠
I was told if it's not listed in the specs or service manual then use standard bolt torque specs.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
