Hub stud Torque specs needed ?

Hello

I'm getting ready to install new studs to mount the Aisin locking hubs. I don't have a FSM and can't find these specs. Some say finger tight, a youtube by low range says to double nut and use an impact until they stop ? does anyone know the factory specs ?

Thank you for the help

I doubt that there is an actual spec for setting those studs into the hub.

I'd just double nut them and turn them in until they stop with moderate force on the rachet, or box end wrench when the threads bottom into the body of the hub..

I sure wouldn't pound 'em in with an impact.

The Haynes manual I just consulted says 21 to 25 foot pounds for the top nuts that retain the locking hub body on those studs.

Thread size, bolt class, threaded material, determine the torque amount.. One of the two charts above has the information..

Thanks guys

That is what I did, snug little blue thread lock . I didn't need to double nut them as my kit has a 6mm head on the stud. The only reason I noted the impact is that Low Range has 9 part how to video and thats how they did it.
