Hey all, I am away from home and have developed the CV joint rumble (at 50k miles). I want to try and fix them before I drive back, but I don't have my shop manual with me. Can anyone give me the torque specs on the relevant fasteners? Much appreciated.

Since I don't know exactly what you are doing, I will have to guess.

Diff to Half shaft 61 lbf-ft
Spindle Nut 181 lbf-ft
Lower joint castle nut 43-51 lbf-ft


What else do you need?

 

I think you've given me a good start. I won't know until I pull it apart tomorrow (provided I can get parts). But I suspect that the inner CV only requires messing with the diff to half shaft fasteners, maybe a suspension piece or two.

Thanks.

You might try swapping left and right inner CV joints if you fail to find replacements.

 

Thanks Dave, that might be necessary. Everything for the S2000 seems to be special order short of oil filters these days
