I'm going to build as much of it up as possible tomorrow.

Whats the recommended torque setting for the flange nuts?

Cheers

I just nipped mine up then center punched the section to lock it in place.... I also had a special tool (being a bit of bar with x2 studs) to stop the flange from spinning whilst tightening
