Torque Question

BDM manual originally said 80lbs. they have changed that at one point to 100lbs but someone on here said they had talked to a tech at the factory and they stated 120lbs?

Wood, that's on the clutch side. I think he's asking about the pulley side or beltside.
05 manual states; "50 ft lbs + additional 30 to 40 degrees". Not sure what that means but guess you torque to 50 lbs and then turn the wrench an additional 30 degrees which is just a small bit on a 360 degree scale.
This nut has two lock bolts that should be torqued to 7-9 ft lbs.

So you were talking about the clutch hub and not the trans pully?

Raywood, no you are correct I was talking about the Pulley side. The small o-ring seal that fits between on the inside of the pulley spacer kept getting crushed. That is a lot less than I was cranking it down. I really appreciuate the guidance on this. Must have gone through 5 of these o-rings. Also, found a tool that JIM's makes to lock the pulley in place.
Make sure you use good loctite as mine backed off a couple years ago and wore down the lock bolts. Haven't had an issue with the o-ring though and no other issue with the nut after it was replaced.
SORRY ABOUT THAT. MY BAD. hope i didn't cause a problem!!!!!!!!!!!!
