i just got my new g-force axle in and was wondering how tight the axle nut is soposed to be

Posted by: NacsMXer

Tight enough to prevent side to side movement of the axle, then tighten the jam nut. It would be a good idea to junk the POS stock axle nut at this point....you'll save yourself a lot of headaches down the road

The stock axle nut is torqued to 65 ft lbs and the large nut that tightens against the brake rotor is torqued to 94 ft lbs.
