Author Message   Acgwolfe Posted on Sunday, April 26, 2009 - 01:01 pm:        i just put front brakes on my xb12 and cant seem to find what to torque the axle. Does anyone know? thanks craig   Fullcircle Posted on Sunday, April 26, 2009 - 02:08 pm:        Specs for my XB9 is 39-41ft lbs. I would think it is the same.   Slamber777 Posted on Sunday, April 26, 2009 - 05:11 pm:        FC is right. 39-41'lbs for the axle WITH Anti-sieze. 20-22'lbs torque for the pinch bolts.   Acgwolfe Posted on Sunday, April 26, 2009 - 05:28 pm:        Great, thanks for your help   Surveyor Posted on Monday, April 27, 2009 - 03:17 pm:        Be careful, if it's like the XB9 it's a left hand thread and if your torque wrench doesn't break for left hand thread you can overtighten the axle crush the spacer and destroy the wheel bearings....how do I know this...don't ask
