Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Maintenance & Servicing Torque setting for 1953 rear axle castle nut

Many thanks, It's this one (which is marked as 32 MRA1060 rear axle shaft nut 7HA) in the spares book



When I undid it, all I could tell was it was tightened to more than the 140 lb-ft limit of my admittedly rather cheap torque wrench.

Is a 7HA axle expected on a 1953 plus 4?

many thanks for the help.
