(1) Apply sealant, Part No. STC 50552 to threads.
(2) DO NOT reuse old nut or bolt.
(3) Continue to tighten pinion nut until pinion preload torque-to-turn is 15.0-24.8 INCH Lbs. (1.7-2.8 N.m). If pinion preload is higher, replace collapsible spacer. DO NOT tighten pinion nut to more than 275 Ft. Lbs. (373 N.m), or collapsible spacer will be compressed too far.
(4) Tighten with weight of vehicle on suspension.
