I've searched the manual & can't find out how tight to do up the bolts on the rear hub centre on my leaf sprung ute. Can anyone help please?

Although that is a Coil sprung Rear wagon. and it seems that is the wheel nuts? hmm let me see if i can find something Ute specific? clearly that is different to a Wagon. that is almost a Toyota 80 series setup cuppa? is that your ute mate?

H260 leaf sprung full floater. They're bolts and the manual does state nuts which would assume a h233 noted, but they are of similar size so that torque setting could be used, just monitor it regularly and re-tension if required

Thanks Darren & Ben, That's what I first thought, but those are for the wheel studs.
I had made the same mistake & tried doing the hub centre nuts up to 100ft-lb but chickened out (thankfully) at 80 & even that felt far too much. I then realised my mistake & loosened them off, luckily no stripped threads.

Yes for my ute. Seems utes are a different breed in many ways to wagons.

Have just finally found the diagram at Feb '99 Supplement 2 1st Revision Rear axle full floating type RA7 ...... 36 -42 ft lbs ...... it's only taken about an hour to find it! Nissan manuals are a nightmare, I had almost given up the search.

I'm loving the internet speed in the hills!

I saw Cuppas post 1 hour ago and tried to download the manual as I thought I saw it there a while ago and it just finished downloading now :(

Annnd after all that the manual was in another folder!!!!!!!!!!
