Not sure on the settings, sorry but do you have any linkys to the parts please? Looking at options at the mo.

Just tighten to what feels right and give an extra little bit. I've been working on cars for fifty years and never torqued anything apart from head and flywheel bolts .I've upgraded all my suspension and brakes myself 10 years ago on my griff and remove the wheels every month. Nothing has fallen off yet

Yes just give it a that will do and a bit more.

Threadlock on bolts

Yes threadlock is great beware though to much and you won't undo them next year

On threadlocker, there are different grades of course - purple is light, blue is medium, red is permanent...

Or use Nordlock washers. Much better.
