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.

my chart for bolt specs only goes to 1 inch= 700 lbs with oil....so 1 1/8" at 800 lbs sounds to be on the money

always dropping GOLD, all you have to do is just pick it UP !
