Hey all.

I have a APS TT 350z and i have recently upgraded my Axles to the 900hp drive shaft shop ones *snapped the stock ones*.

less then 1000km after installing them, my outer cv joint has become loose and is making a clunking noise. the hex style nuts holding the outer cv joint together have become undone/loose.

I am wondering if anyone here knows the recommended torque settings for the outer cv join.

Thanks

Cain

 

well i thought i would let everyone know that the torque rating is 59 f/lbs for the bolts.

 

dunno the torque setting, but your cv joint didn't break or get damaged? cv joint on zs are a weak link and they get busted up, even with level 5 axles.

 

Hmm seems like an issue. The bolts on the Spline on mine let loose on the dyno.... Both sides!

 

Is 59lbs the stock setting? If so, I would think it should be a little higher, only because it is not a stock part, and will be exposed to higher than stock abuse...so a higher torque setting would be expected.
Let me know. Good question though.
