Torque for U bolts on 7000 lbs axel

[rjr6150]

Not sure on the ft lbs. torque for our rig. We have Dexter 7000 lb axels. The nut is 3/4”. Checking the hug manual not sure if I have the 1/2” or 9/16” U bolt.

Thanks

My 7000lb axles came with 1/2 inch ubolts and I torque at 85lbs. I upgraded the shackles to heavy duty with wet bolts and torque them to 50lbs.
