In Reply to: OT: 2004 C5500 Chevy rear axle nut torque posted by redtom on May 03, 2021 at 13:29:45:

This is for a C5500

Installation Procedure

Align the thrust washer keyway with the spindle keyway with the nut facing outboard.

Engage thread and spin nut down until thrust washer bottoms on bearing surface.

Apply axial pressure on the installation tool, depressing the nut and lock ring which will bottom out against the thrust washer.

While holding axial pressure rotate hub to make sure all bearings are seated and rotating freely.

Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice.

Align the thrust washer keyway with the spindle keyway with the nut facing outboard.

Tighten:

Tighten the nut to 103.5 [n-m] (77 lb ft).

Maintain axial pressure, backing off the adjusting nut 90 degrees.

Retighten the hub adjusting nut with axial pressure applied to 24 [n-m] (18 lb ft) while rotating the hub to insure bearings are rotating freely.

Inspect the nut for lock engagement by releasing axial pressure. The nut should no longer turn by hand only.

Install the rear axle shafts. Refer to Rear Axle Shaft and/or Gasket Replacement (Except Dana 286 Axle)Rear Axle Shaft and/or Gasket Replacement (Dana 286 Axle).

Lower the rear axle housing. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle.

I would have guessed 15 lb ft before I looked it up.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
