Ask latebird for a manual for your year machine. Typically stuff like that doesn’t change from year to year, but you never know. The torque value for a 2018 850/1000 castle nut is 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm) per the service manual.

The torque value for a 2018 850/1000 castle nut is 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm) per the service manual.I have a 450 ('18 - HO EPS model) and I did those nuts at 70 front and 110 rear - now I'm not sure if those are correct either - I've seen numbers all over the map from 70 square through to 80 square to 70 f and 110 r - which I presently have them set to as I mentioned.. There should be a chart or sticky made up for this site so the real and actual numbers for many, if not most current and past models, can be easily seen by and for idiots like me that don't apparently have much of a clue!![]()
What model is that for?From the Service Manual: Page 2.31

Just to be clear, OP was talking about a 850 Ultimate which the specs are 80 ft.lbs. You provide the specs for a 450/570 which are 70 front, 110 rear. Now we know.The question was:
I have a 450 ('18 - HO EPS model) and I did those nuts at 70 front and 110 rear - now I'm not sure if those are correct either - I've seen numbers all over the map from 70 square through to 80 square to 70 f and 110 r - which I presently have them set to as I mentioned.. There should be a chart or sticky made up for this site so the real and actual numbers for many, if not most current and past models, can be easily seen by and for idiots like me that don't apparently have much of a clue!
The answer is;
Polaris 450/570 from the latest version of the Service Manual Latebird sent me, I believe it's 2017 - 2019 but specs haven't changed for later models.
