Hello,
Start at the middle and then work your way out in a circle. Start by tightening them down to 25 foot pounds. The go to 47 and then finish at 75 and you are all set.
Here is a diagram (BELOW) to sow you how to do it.
Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
Cheers, Ken
