that's a good idea. Is that 13mm 12point? I don't have a torque wrench though for when I put them back. I really don't think something's wrong, it's the nicest sounding diesel I ever heard. a little shaking sometimes, but I suspect the rack dampner bolt.
I feel like I shouldn't mess with it. once you mess with something that ain't broken...
