Front Wheel Bearing Lock Nut Torque M1028A1 Thread starter 319 Start date Sep 13, 2009 ••• More options Who Replied? Sep 13, 2009 #1 319 Lieutenant Steel Soldiers Supporter 3,348 57 48 Location Michigan Repacked front wheel bearings on my 1986 M1028A1 and torqued the nuts according to the -20 TM. Afterwards I looked at the Chilton's manual and got conflicting information. The -20 TM says to torque the inner nut to 50 ft lbs, loosen it, then re-torque to 50 ft lbs. Back the nut off lining up the pin on the nut with a hole in the washer, then torque the outer nut to 160 ft lbs. The Chilton's manual says to torque the inner nut to 50 ft lbs, loosen then re-torque to 35 ft lbs., install the washer, then torque the outer nut to 65 ft lbs for 1 ton vehicles. (The Chilton's manual also says 160-205 ft lbs on 1981 and later 1/2 and 3/4 ton models.) Anyone know which is correct? A forum search did not answer my specific question.   Sep 13, 2009 #2 kennyw Member 263 4 18 Location Stones Throw from Reiter, WA The correct procedure according to my 1979 GM factory service manual: Torque the inner nut to 50 ft-lbs while rotating the bearing hub, then back off and re-torque to 35 ft-lbs while rotating the bearing hub. Then, back off the inner nut again 3/8 turn maximum. Next install washer and outer nut and torque to 65 ft-lbs. Hub should have .001 to .010 inch end play for all K10, K20, and K30 models   Sep 13, 2009 #3 319 Lieutenant Steel Soldiers Supporter 3,348 57 48 Location Michigan Those are the figures (50/35/65) I'm leaning towards. I'll re-torque and drive around for a while and see what happens. I also located a Spicer (Dana) maintenance manual for the 60 and it says to torque both at 50 ft lbs. It isn't specific to model years though. Thanks   Sep 13, 2009 #4 kennyw Member 263 4 18 Location Stones Throw from Reiter, WA Either way, you should back off the inner nut after the final torque to achieve the .001-.010 end play when your done. The torque of the outer locknut should not affect much at 60 or 160 ft-lbs. It just keeps the washer in place, which keeps the inner locknut from backing out/rotating.   Sep 13, 2009 #5 OLDCHEV4X4 New member 690 2 0 Location Glenmoore PA kennyw said: Torque the inner nut to 50 ft-lbs while rotating the bearing hub, then back off and re-torque to 35 ft-lbs while rotating the bearing hub.

On Dana 44, 10 bolt, and Dana 60.   Sep 13, 2009 #6 319 Lieutenant Steel Soldiers Supporter 3,348 57 48 Location Michigan Thanks for the input guys, I had a feeling when I looked at the TM that it just didn't seem accurate.   You must log in or register to reply here.
