Axle recall nut torque.

[2023TxTaco]

Axle nut recall torque for my 2023. What is that value, NM or Ft/lbs? Is it 27 or 33? I see both. Dealers say bring it in..nope. I'll lose 200k off my clutch.
Thanks,
Dustin

Are you asking about SAFETY RECALL - 24TA05? Do you have the complete repair document? I am seeing Torque: 55 N·m {41 ft·lbf} in the repair document.

I have nothing as of yet. I'm NOT going to the dealer. I am going to remove the nuts one bu one and file down any stage on the backing plate and put blue lock locktite on the threads and torque down.
41 ftlbs?

Yes, for the welding slage.

 

[MikeB]

I'm guessing you do not care much for the dealer. I wish you well.

I just. don't trust the mechanics. I had major issues with them on my new Ford truck and at the toyota dealership, I heard one murder a clutch on a TRD Pro

Mike,
Do you have the invoice for it? The dealers that I've called will not tell me anything other than the techs are busy.

 

[MikeB]

By invoice do you mean the recall inspection and repair sheet? Yes, I have a copy. It is the PDF file I have attached.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you Mike
