Did you unstake the nut before attempting to torque it? At 105ft/lbs I'm assuming it would unstake itself but might ruin the threads?
 
It was not a castle/staked nut as far as I could tell. Am I wrong? What does it look like to you guys?
 
Ok maybe I don't know what is meant by staked?
 
How could something even loosen up if it was staked?
 
The dent in the nut over the groove makes loosening less likely.
Pry or use punch to remove the dent, retighten, the "stake" again

OK after "unstaking" can I re-use nut or buy another nut then re-stake?? Thanks @jm599
 
Also replace shims??
 
I reuse others may not.

Haven't rebuilt a transfer in 10 yrs.
bypass hoses are saving them I guess.
Don't remember specifics about shims.
Factory manual available online
