Dan the Gear Man® Tech Notes: Replace Nut Torque Metal Gasket Matching Parts Applications Tech Note 1: ReplaceNever reuse a bend-over-tab spindle lockwasher as metal fatigue on the bend over and spindle tabs may cause them to break off which could allow the spindle nuts to back off! I have been driving behind vehicles that had this happen. It is not a pretty sight. Tech Note 2: Nut TorqueSpindle nut torque values will vary depending upon make and model. You MUST be careful not to over tighten the outer spindle nut which could cause the inside tab on the lockwasher to sheer off! Tech Note 3: Metal GasketMetal Axle Shaft to Hub Gasket applications for vehicles using this part are:Chevy, GMC 1965-1972: QU30051Dodge 1963-1968: QU40078 (fits models that don't use an outer wheel seal sandwiched between 2 gaskets)Jeep 1974-1988: QU30051 Tech Note 4:
