[QUOTE="v65, post: 611588, member: 1773"] In the numerous previous discussions on the matter, the best forum guess is that the 31ft lbs spec is a dry torque spec. Given that the nut is bathed in oil you would use half of that spec, ie 15ftlbs (The alternative being that the 31ft lbs is the wet spec, making the dry spec 62ft lbs, which doesn't seem likely). Why they would quote a dry spec is anyone's guess. Given all that, plenty of good advice above on how to do the job without a torque wrench. [/QUOTE]
