Hi,

Are you referring to the axle nut?

I attached directions for the replacement of a drive axle. I don't know if that was done or if the hub itself was replaced. However, the directions provide the needed torque specs.

Take a look through the attachments and let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
