    Note the odd shaped plain plates. The tabs get spaced at 72 degrees when you put it back together; ie; first tab straight up, next one 72 degrees, next one 144 degrees, etc (in "fifths" going around.)

    I'll get you the torque specs when I get home. You'll need a new tab washer.

    The big nut {NEW TAB WASHER!!!} goes to 50.5 ft/lb; the bolts in the springs go to 5.8 ft/lb. You'll need a clutch tool or some other way to hold the hub from turning when you tighten it.

    Note what I said above about 'spacing' the tabs on the plain plates; the odd friction plate with the wave washer goes in the 5th position out/3rd in; and the dot on the pressure plate must line up with the dot on the hub when reassembling.
