Dear Volks,

My Bentley manual, with a copyright date of 1989, lists the following for
rear axle nut torques:

Page 42.1, Quick Data, Rear Axle Nut:             350 Nm / 253 ft lb
Page 42.4, Rear Wheel Suspension, Shafts & Axle:  500 Nm / 360 ft lb
Page 46.6, Brakes - Mechanical Components:        350 Nm / 253 ft lb

I'm confused.  Two out of three seem to indicate 253 ft lb torque on the
rear axle nut is appropriate. . . .

Anyone have an updated manual with "better" information?

Thanks much,

TJ Sheffield
'87 Syncro
