Hi Group:

Need the torque specs for the front spindle nut torque. I just replaced my studs and had to pull off the spindle...my manual for my 88 says 65ft lbs. I have a 91 740.

Thanks much,

If you are talking about the big nut that holds hub on it is a LOT more than that. It is breaker bar with a piece of pipe jump on it tight.
It is something like 45 ft-lb plus 120 degrees but you will probably not get the 120 degrees.
