WHEELS, RIMS AND TIRES 3. Draw    up    stud    nuts    alternately    following    the sequence (crisscross pattern) illustrated in Figure  40.    Do  not  fully  tighten  the  nuts  at  this time.  This procedure will allow a uniform seating of nuts and insure the even face-to-face contact of wheel and hub. 4. Continue    tightening    the    nuts    to    the    torque specifications   in   the   Torque   Chart   using   the same alternating method shown in Figure 40. 5. Install    the    outer    rear    wheel    and    repeat    the preceding method.  Be sure that  both  inner  and outer tire valve stems are accessible. Figure 40.  - Disc Wheel Tightening Sequence 6. After operating the vehicle approximately 80 km (50   miles)   check   the   stud   nuts   for   tightness. Some natural seating of parts may be encountered  and  the  torque  on  nuts  will  drop. Retighten all nuts to specified torque. To  check  and  tighten  the  Inner  wheel  to  proper torque, first loosen the outer  wheel  nuts  several turns  and  tighten  the  Inner  nuts,  then  retighten the outer nuts. To prevent losing the seating of the outer wheel when   checking   the   Inner   wheel   torque,   It   is suggested that alternates outer nuts be loosened and  retighten,  the  outer  nuts.    Then  loosen  the remaining outer nuts, tighten inner  nut  and  then retighten the outer nuts. Once   each   week   lnspect   and   retorque   wheel stud nub. Disc Wheels with Flange Nuts Refer to Figure 41 for cross section view of flange nut 1. Slide inner rear or front tire and wheel in position over  Suds  and  push  back  as  far  as  possible. Use  over  so  that  the  threads  on  studs  are  not damaged. 2. Position  outer  rear  tire  and  wheel  In  place  over the   studs   and   push   back   as   far   as   possible. Again use care so that the threads on studs are not damaged. 3. Run the nuts on the studs until nuts contact the wheel or wheels.  Rotate wheel assembly a half turn to permit parts to seat. 4. Draw up nuts alternately following the (crisscross)   sequence   Illustrated   in   Figure   40. Do  not  fully  tighten  nuts  at  this  time.    This  will allow  uniform  seating  of  nuts  and  assure  even face-to-face contact of wheel and hub. 5. Continue tightening the nuts to torque specifications   in   the   Torque   Chart   using   the same alternating sequence shown in Figure 40. Figure 41 CTS-4148A Page 21
