Revin Kevin Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Simon, I hope I'm not teaching you to suck eggs but the pre-load on the crush washer is not just as easy as torquing the nut up, there is specific way or doing it which is a bit long winded to go into here, but if you know how it is 20-26lbs less oil seal drag. Backlass is 5 to 7 thou. Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
