What is the torque needed on an axle nut 1998 ford windstar?
I'm replacing the CV Axle as well as the sway bar on a 1998 ford windstar. I'm learning as I go and have been watching video's and reading about it. Some say that the axle nut needs 150 foot pounds of torque and others say 225 so I'm confused. I just want to know how necessary is it really? I have a torque wrench that only goes up to 150. Does it really matter as long as I get it as tight as possible without stripping it? Also the same thing with the sway bar can I just get it tight enough. If not how do I get that info especially on an older vehicle?
If you weigh 150 then jump on it to 225. Done. You will never strip that. They do sometimes gall on the weigh out tho.
I don't have access to Alldata while at home but if you tighten the nut to 200 ft lbs. It should be fine. Since you don't have a torque wrench that goes that high take a 3 foot breaker bar and stand on the handle. Don't slip and hit your ankle!
- Will a 2000 Ford Windstar lx fuse box diagram be the same as a 2003 Ford Windstar fuse box? I found a link about a 2003 but I need to know if it'll be the same for a 2000. If it ain't can anyone help me out with a link showing information like this but about a 2000 model? Thanks. http://www.fixya.com/cars/t11808484-2003_ford_windstar_fuse_box_diagram
- What are the thread and pitch measurements of the windshield wiper arm nut of a Ford Taurus 2002? The nut that came with the car out of the factory. The one I have now stripped and needs replaced. Went to O reillys for help and they told me to get the Thread and Pitch measurements and I don't have the tool for that.

- I have 1998 Ford Windstar as of now when I put in drive/reverse it won't move. It just revs. The car starts up fine? It started while I was driving down the road and I pressed the gas to go a little faster and my rpm went up to 4 and went down. I have an automatic too. There's no burnt smell in my transmission fluid stick/tank. I just left the gas station before this happened if that helps. Any ideas? Someone suggest my second/reverse band and I have never heard of it.
