Hi All,
Could someone please confirm torque figure for the ring of nuts that hold the diff carrier into the axle case.
Currently working on axle for TA1957.

hi Jeff - I doubt whether anyone ever bothers to use a torque wrench on these nuts: the usual approach for all non-critical fastenings is to use a spanner and wrist power! Typical spanner for 5/16" BSF is 6-8" long: torque probably around 20lbsf. ft.
cheers
Roger
