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. Regards, Jeff N Cambridgeshire UK TA1957 TB0489 Sent from my iPhone

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
