V8 4.6 | 2010 | Lift hook / loop botl torque

[pchelka]

Guys quick question, Does any one know the torque for Lift hooks on V8 4.6?

I cant find this in the service manual (aside of the bolt number and Table torque which I don't trust), by table it states around 36Nm which seems kind of low for hoisting such a heavy engine

What's the hardware size? M8? M10? I recently pulled a Ford v10 with 4 standard m5 bolts on lift straps.

When I pulled my 5.0, I didn't have to move the oem lifting hooks.

I believe its M8, jsut supprised that the Manual states 30 NM and this thing lifts whole motor

As long as the bolt has adequate tension, it is fine. You may be mixing tightness with the bolt's shear strength.
