Default Requesting bolt torque ratings
Requesting torque ratings for M8 and M10 bolts underneath the C8 into the frame.
The M8 is the Torx Plus fastener at the rear that threads into 1” of aluminum frame threads.
The M10 is Hex head at the front that threads into 1.25” of aluminum frame threads.

I am having second thoughts to these tie down points. Especially the rear ones.
