Dana 80 wheel bearing torque?

[scottie99]

What are the torque specs in lbs./ft. for Dana 80 rear axle bearings? What is the adjustment procedure and is the torque specs the same for both new and used bearings? I've got to do a complete brake job and need the specs to adjust the wheel bearings during the replacement on a 96' 3500.

I meant "axle bearing" torque!

Keep in mind, the 120/140 lbs nut torque is just to seat/set the bearings. Be sure and back the nut off about a 6th of a turn. I back it off to a small amount of slack then tighten to where there is none. A bearing will run loose for years, it will not run tight at all, before it burns up.
