Windshield Wipers Nut Torque Specs

[dangerz]

Went to use my windshield wipers today and they kinda flopped all over. I'm guessing the nut isn't tightened enough. Anyone know what the torque specs are for it?

No, I do not know exact torque specs for this. I'd probably go no more then say 15 ft. lbs. (20 Nm) which is pretty typical torque to use on a wiper nut. I would do this, unless I found a spec that said otherwise.

We have had a couple of guys report the same with their JLU. They tightened the nut and all was well....

The torque spec is 18 ft.lbs. or 25 N.m.
