If the hub rotation starting torque at the specified tightening
torque [160 ± 16 N·m (118 ± 11ft-lb)] exceeds the limit value,
replace the hub. If there are rough or gritty feelings in rotation,
replace the hub.

Washer

1.

Assemble the driveshaft washer in the illustrated direction.

2.

Use special tool MB990767 to tighten the driveshaft nuts. At
this  time,  tighten  the  nuts  within  the  specified  torque  range
considering the final tightening.

Tightening torque: 144 - 176 N·m (107 - 129 ft-lb)

3.

If the pin holes do not align with the pins, tighten the driveshaft
nut [less than 200 N·m (147 ft-lb)] and find the nearest hole
then bend the cotter pin to fit it.
