Torque spec for 9/16 Spindle nuts

(1/2) > >>

TJ805:
Anyone know what the torque spec is for the 6- 9/16 nuts that hold the spindle and splash guard to the steering knuckle is? Search came up empty...

VileZambonie:
45 lb-ft for most K series, but what are we working on here?

TJ805:
Dana 44 on a '73 K-10. I saw an exploded view that had them rated at 65 ft lbs. I have them at 50, but will probably go that last 15.

VileZambonie:
K10 and K20 are 45lb-ft

TJ805:
That's the third value that I've heard. I actually saw an exploded view that had them at 65, but never got the source info to verify it.
Pissing me off! I have them at 50 for the time being...
-Thanks!
