Sooo. been switching out rear tires... and..I have no manual... but I do have some mechanical skills... so my question is, when you put the rear axel and everything together... do you just torque everything together where it sits, or, suck the right swingarm into the washer flush? I know.... but I need to know... lol unk:

Tighten large axle nut on left side first to bring everything together. Then, loosen a bit. Tighten/torque pinch bolt on right side. Then, torque large nut again.

Don't go to factory specs on the Tq. About 40-45ft/lbs and it will be happy. Ever since I set mine at 40lbs, my diff has been running cooler. I also check it from time to time and it seems to stay consistent.
