47 Rear Axle Nut Torque

Posted by Wesley Boyer On 2019/9/28 17:51:55

I've been looking all over for the torque of the Rear Axle Nut. The only thing I've found is in the Service Manual Section II Reconditioning the Rear Axle on page 31, it says tighten securely. Nothing in the Torque Specifications. Torque for the wheel bolts is 85 to 95 ft./lbs. I've seen someone posted 200 to 275 ft/lbs but I was looking for a reference.
Thanks!
