Hello Group,

One thing we need to realize is the axle is UNDER the spring. The U-bolts do not carry any weight. They only keep the axle attached to the spring.

I also checked mine yesterday on my 2014 3150RL. The nuts on the U-bolts were a mixture of tightness. Some as low as 45ft lbs and some close to 70ft lbs.

I tightened all to 65ft lbs
