Anyone know where to find a torque wrench or adapter to torque the rear
axle nut. Bentley requires 369 ft lb and the largest wrench I can find
goes to 250 ft lb. The August Hot VWs shows an article using Kymco's
Torque Meister (Rocky Mt.. Motorworks) and drum plate adapter but it
does not look like it would work for a 87 Vanagon.

How does the list group do it?

Thanks,
