I have a 1999 Kia Sportage that I just put rear brakes on. Does anyone know the touque of the four nuts that hold the hub on ? I know they were really tight when I removed them and would like to retighten them to the proper touque. Thanks for you intrest and your time Huffy

ASSEMBLY
If axle is to be replaced, replace with complete assembly.

Slide oil seal retainer, oil seal, and wheel bearing on axle shaft.
Install new lock nut onto new lock washer.

Tighten lock nuts to 220 ft. lbs. (300 Nm)

Caution:

Turn the lock nut of right-hand shaft clockwise.

INSTALLATION

Axle shafts are left-hand and right-hand. The left-hand shaft is 28.2 inch (717 mm) long; the right-hand shaft is 30.0 inch (763 mm) long.

If removed, place backing plate/brake assembly on four bolts at end of axle housing.
Insert the axle shaft assembly into the axle housing. Take care not to damage oil seal.
Move axle back and forth until axle spline mates with differential side gear spline. Make sure holes in oil seal retainer flange fit over axle housing bolts.

Install four nuts onto axle housing nuts.

Tighten nuts to 74 ft. lbs. (100 Nm).

Install brake drum with four nuts.
Install wheels and lower vehicle.

Tighten nuts to 74 ft. lbs. (100 Nm).
