⁽¹⁾

Apply a small patch of Loctite 242 to the last 5 axle shaft CV joint threads, before installing the NEW axle shaft hub nut. Install and tighten the NEW axle shaft hub nut to specification in a continuous rotation. Stopping the rotation during torque procedure, will cause the nylon lock to set incorrectly. This will cause incorrect torque readings and lead to wheel bearing failure. Always install a NEW axle shaft hub nut after loosening or when the axle shaft hub nut has not been torqued to specification in a continuous rotation.
