I know it is but the ring and pinion are notoriously hard on fasteners. Why
would the axle nut need to be really high - the fronts aren't and the hub fit
on the axle casing is tight anyway. The wheel nuts aren't 140lbs or 180lb
I'm not saying I'm right or anything, I just think 180 is on the high side -
especially given the low looking spec of the nut (it is thin).

Subject: Re: Rear Hub Lock Nut Torque?
Information I have in a parts catalogue says 25lb which sounds on the
low
side but 180 seems on the high side.
