Rear axel Hub Nuts Fiat/Alco Torque ? (1 Viewer)

[simonjfoley]

I all , Please, I need the torque setting for the rear hub nuts on Fiat / Alco Chassis 2004 2.8 Jtd. TIA Simon .

135nm is what the handbook says for a 2003 3.8t Burstner with Alko chassis on a 2.8 Fiat Ducato......but it doesn't specify alloy or steel rims.....the van has alloys but the handbook photo is the steel spare.....

I think he wants bearing hub nut torque not wheel bolts

 

[chatteris]

there is a fraser brown video on youtube and they tightened nut till hub would not rotate then backed off till turned freely

Are you talking about the wheel bearing nut? That is really the hub nut and it is a crazy high figure.

Definitely right on that, I have just broken my 46mm socket trying to undo mine, had to buy a heavy duty 3/4inch impact one using bar and scaffold pipe to undo it,
Mine is a Alko chassis on a Renault master 2008,

Recommended is 175 Nm or 129lbf ft.

Yes sorry for just saying it is tight, not a great help.

I have checked my notes and for the hub nut on a Fiat rear end the torque is a massive 450 Nm that is 331 Lb feet. (X250 chassis)

Seeing as how the hub and all of the parts around that assembly are Fiat issue even on an Alko rear end then it is very fair to assume the same torque setting, as far as I can see all the FIAT stuff is just mounted onto the Alko trailing arm.

The nut is 46mm af as mentioned else where and I could only find a 300 Lb feet torque wrench and that was 3/4" drive.

450 Nm is so much torque some blokes will not be able to muster the strength required.

Everything around those hubs are really heavy, even the wheel weighs' a lot.

Sorry Mzracer, I meant it would have been nice to have a response from the op to enlighten us all as to his wants.......

No worry, we got some information out for people to share.

The main thing is the torque is huge!!

Thank you all for your replies , it's much appreciated . Simon.

My Britool torque wrench does 140Nm to 560Nm and yes at the top end it's a struggle.

Normaly used for Ifor Williams axle nuts 350Nm.

So it would seem that 330 to 350Nm is a regular torque setting for hubnuts.

Thanks for that info.
