The axle nuts are one use only.

MAKE DAMN SURE you replace them.


The axle nuts give the bearing (yes it is 2 individual bearings sharing the same casing) proper preload and if not torqued correctly will lead to premature wheel bearing failure. (or worse)


FYI - TQ on the wheel nut is over 210 lb/ft.
