It's really good to finally find a you tube video by someone who is clearly a veteran in this field. I am so sick of going to you tube when I need to learn something and I have to weed thru every idiot in the world who thinks they should be famous, attempt to repair something with little to no experience and is truly a waste of time. Cheers to the TRQ Team thank you for your knowledge and time, this is what you tube should be for

Excellent video. But why didn’t you give the torque specs of the new axle nut?? This specs seems to be the most important of all the fasteners

In the trq video for the passenger side, he says to torque the axle nut to 200ftlbs, I assume its the same on the driver side as well.
