Hello All,

I would like to remove the case back on a sub that I purchased to make sure it is all legit. I have a proper case back tool, when I put the case back together how much pressure should I apply to make sure it is tight enough. Thanks for any advise.

Generally it's enough force to compress the gasket, and then the two solid surfaces touch. At that point, you cannot tighten it any more.. You just don't want to force it so tight you stretch the threads or cause it to seize making future removal difficult...
