1967 front drum backing plate and spindle to knuckle torque? I found a thread here for 34 foot lbs. I think this maybe for later models. Help please.

Found it. 11-16 ft lbs.1967 front drum backing plate and spindle to knuckle torque? I found a thread here for 34 foot lbs. I think this maybe for later models. Help please.
Thanks. Now which one do I use?My fsm says 29 - 39 ft-lb so your good at 34.
I found my specs on Coolerman’s thread.I cannot lie, my spec is for a disc knuckle. I am assuming the torque for these bolts would be the same.
Yes. That’s where the 22.8 f/lbs comes from.DJ45, like this? Without manual locking hubs?View attachment 2736648
Manual locking hubs are not factory.Yes. That’s where the 22.8 f/lbs comes from.
I set it at 16 ft lbs and ran my safety wire.I find it interesting that differnet years and different versions of the manual do occassionally list different torques (or none at all) for the same applications. I put together that long thread from a couple different versions of bith Toyota and non Toyota manuals and have seen that earlier or later editions do sometimes have some differences for the same span of model years.
I think I can use the 22.8 ft lbs for the manual lock outs? I got these Sears lock outs from bmoonhajjar here on mud almost a year ago. I had to drill the mounting holes out to 25/64”. It seems to function fine.
Yes, safety wire job could be better....Most of those are neutral safeties and one is negative. (From the old helicopter crew chief in me )
