All torque specifications are ± 5%.
Torques specified are for clean, lubricated threads.
Always apply torque to nut if possible.
Required re-torquing at every brake re-lining.
* If equipped with 7/8" pan head shear bolt, ensure that the spline is
sheared off and that there are no signs of movement.
NOTE:
Torque specifications listed above are with clean
lubricated/coated threads
(Table 3)
. All new
SAF-HOLLAND fasteners come precoated from
the factory. For bolt and lock nut grade markings,
refer to
Figure 19
.
IMPORTANT:
The use of special lubricants with friction
modifiers, such as Anti-Seize or Never-Seez
®
,
without written approval from SAF-HOLLAND
engineering, will void warranty and could
lead to over torquing of fasteners or other
component issues.
General Information
1. The torque specifications are applied to the nut and
NOT the bolt.
Failure to use the proper fasteners when
servicing the suspension could cause
component failure which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
Failure to properly torque all fasteners
could result in component failure which,
if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
