Reply to "Tighten rear axle nuts with a “torque multiplier”?"

PercyMember

Thanks bosswench -dont worry I have ordered all of those "non essential" bits from Wilkinsons! May have explained why one nut was virtually finger tight when I took it off.... Also some very nice bluing on the bearing spacer

I have a full blown 500ft lb 1 ' drive torque wrench ( a hand me down from my dear old Dad who was a master mechanic with Ford for many years. ) so the tensioning should not be an issue.

If I had him here I would driving down the road by now! it will be a red letter day when this thing starts up again - 29 years now and counting !
