Hello Tim, I think that you are well into the realm of TLAR (That Looks
About Right) for a torque value for these bolts. You can look at Table
7-1 on page 7-9 of this AC:
http://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/Chapter_07.pdf
but these values do not envision a sandwich that includes a sheet of
elastomeric material in the stack up.
You want a firm hold, but at the same time you don=99t want to
squish the elastomeric out to the point that it can not do its job.
I=99ll include the entire KIS Matronics list with this response
and maybe someone else has a more quantitative / definitive answer.

Subject: TR-1
Hello OC,
I am doing my annual condition inspection on my TR-1 and was wondering
what torque the main gear AN 5 bolts is. I have the rubber cushion as
described in the manual but didn't see a torque value called out.
I have 565 hrs. on her now.
Thanks, Tim
