Thanks I mean

 

FWIW, I think you torque the pinion nut to 210lbs, no more, then check the pinion drag with the torque wrench. If the pinion drag isnt enough, add 10lbs of torque to the pinion nut and recheck pinion drag.
You dont want to start with over 210lbs of initial torque because you may over torque the nut and over crush the collar/over preload the pinion and then you have to start over with a new pinion crush collar.

 

210 is the n*m, 285 is the min ft/lb

 

You have that backwards.

 

According to the 04service manual I do not.

 

Derp, long day my bad

 

What is the carrier barring adjuster preload torque?

 

What are you driving?
