Cortina Hub Assembly

Hi chaps,

I'm assembling my cortina hubs and wondered if anyone had the haynes manual handy, I need to know how tight to torque the bolts that hold on the brake disc and also the main hub nut?

Cheers, James

Torques

Disc to hub: 41 to 47 Nm.
Caliper to upright: 62 to 69 Nm.

If you are referring to the nut on the end of the stub axle, this is not torqued as the other two are, it is carefully adjusted to just absorb any rock in the wheel bearings, without preloading them, and then the nut is retained by the serrated washed and held with a split pin,

For the hub nut the book says torque to 27lb ft then undo by 1/4 turn.
