Ems Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 How tight should the u bolt on the prop be, I have always guessed. I've just changed the rubber donut and bearing again so want to get this as accurate as possible this time! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Im sure its in the workshop manual, but im sure Herman will be along with the info before i get time to look it up 🙂 Don't forget the little locking tabs on those nuts, makes one hell of a noise if it comes lose and drops off 🙂 This is a scan from the A series workshop manual.

H-400 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 It is 1,2 Mkg, or 12 Nm. Don't think you can fit a socket on those bolts but it is an indication. We had in our military workshop at the barracks torque wrenches with a set of spanners that fitted in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-400 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Sorry Danny 😁, so it is 8,85 pound/feet. Just looked into the manual of the "400" out of curiosity cause they look excactly the same and it says 15Nm. Thats 11 pound/feet. We continentals with our metric system,🔧😔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
