I've always checked mine at 120 ft lbs with a calibrated torque wrench. Evidently it has scared the crap out of Keystone as well though. Second hand info as I had to jump on the tractor and start mowing as soon as we got the MHC unloaded from the trip. DW was on a mission to turn it in as a claim. Me - I had just planned on taking the hub off and use a 3 lb hammer and large drift punch to knock out the old studs, then go to O'Riliey's for replacements to be seated back in place with a hammer. Not a difficult job. With that said, I'm of half a mind to replace ALL the studs on the other three hubs as well. Imagine if one of the wheels on the DS had broken loose instead on our two lane roads.... That thought REALLY scares the crap out of me. I'll update on how things go. |
After this post I don`t know if I should but my water pump died last trip
