for want of a nail the shoe was lost.
250 ft/lbs sounds about right for the pinion nut, however, you can look up the correct value in the factory service manual available for free download here for your year truck - https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...e-manuals.html
Can you still? Last I looked they took the Dana Expert site down. I wasn't surprised-- it was an incredible resource that actually worked and those things are always too good to be true
The "expert" was awesome! Try finding anything on the Spicer site now. I used it for u joints mainly, Just type in the vehicle and it gave you all the u joints. I looked it up on a Spicer pdf file that covers dodge axles. You probably can find it on the Spicer site(X510-5DSD99-01). Once you have the BOM # you will know the part #.
