G'day Folks,

It looks like I might need a special tool to tighten the rear 4 pronged slotted nut on the output shaft of my 722.118 transmission...

In the special tools catalogue on this site and others it lists 2 different types. They are conveniently called labeled as the ones for "the large nut" and for "the small nut" - as I only have one nut I have no idea which nut my nut is!

My nut happens to be a shade smaller than the outer diameter of a 32mm socket ~ so guess it is about 37mm in diameter.

Does anyone know?

Also does anyone know what the torque limit is for the installation of the nut?

Thanks to you good folks (with a copy of the now quite rare ATSG service manual) in advance.
