--- Quote from: sandblaster on July 03, 2018, 03:20:49 AM ---I like to use thread locker on the stud where the threads go into the head.
Then coat the exposed stud with anti-seize.
I use a basic star pattern.
I hand tighten all the nuts.
Then go 6lb torque star pattern, then, 13lb, then 19lb.
After I hit 19 on all the nuts, I go back and hit them again just to be safe.
After about a hour of riding I go back and hit the nuts again.
From there you should be good to go.

Echo what Mike wrote above, but torqued to 18 ft-lb.
