Check page 44-2 of the online manual. It gives torque specs for the suspension. I am guessing you are referring to the large nut that gets staked once torqued. So it looks like 159lbs.

Thanks Jim, that's what I needed. Is there a link to the rest of the online manual? I have some pages in PDF on my computer, but nothing that mentiond the axle nut. And Haynes doesn't either.

Yes indeed

Two choices of manual that are possibly identical.
