ROTATING MY TIRES

[MONSTERMATT]

I wanna start rotating my own tires, mainly because im doing it every 3k due to the fact that i want these nitto mud grapplers to last as long as possible lol!! so i have a few questions, is there a certian "tension" i need to tighten the lugs to? or just crank em as tight as i can by hand? i will obviously need a jack and jack stands and was looking for some recomendations on these as i obviously need a jack that will raise high enough to get the truck to the right height, since iam doing this frequently i will maybe invest in a compressor down the line and i was curious what kind of psi i will need to get the job done right THANKS

140 ft/lbs. I would recommend 100 psi line pressure and A good impact gun(not A 20 dollar one). Torque should always be checked with a torque wrench when done.

I think you're on the right track.

Funny though, by the time you buy jack stands, compressor, and a good impact gun you could have paid to have the wheels rotated through 100,000 miles at a tire shop. Just a thought. Some places even do it for free, especially if you bought the tires there.
