u-joint spanner torque table

[fieromx3]

the other year i had gotten one of those ebay special u-joint spanner wrench tools for my alpha gen 1 outdrive. since it is a shorter version than the OEM mercruiser tool it had come with a new torque value table, that has since been lost long ago lol. does anyone have that torque table they can share with me??

i am not sure what torque setting i should set me wrench to using this shorter version of the tool.....

that chart is for a 12'' OEM spanner wrench. i will have to measure the spanner i have now since it is shorter but say my spanner is 8 inches long i wonder if i can measure my torque wrench and subtract 4 inches from it and use that length instead on the chart?? thoughts?

Check this link, maybe you can get the chart from them.

You should be able to calculate from this http://www.workshopaddict.com/tools/...urable-torque/

Torque x wrench length / (wrench length + extension length) = torque setting

Example from chart with a 12" extension and 24" wrench:
24 x 200 / (12 + 24) = 133
24 x 200 / ( 8 + 24) = 150

Seems to work.
