Correct torque spec for rear axle nut?

Rdsrds123 · 2025-10-04T07:06:40-0400

Hi, I am finding about five different recommendations for the torque specification for the rear axle nut on a 2018 Versa. This is the 30mm center nut on the stub axle/drum.

I've seen 277, 177, 140, and others. This is quite a wide range, and they may all be wrong. Can someone please give me the correct torque? Thank you!

I would suggest calling your local Nissan dealership service department and ask them what the factory recommended torque for the rear axle nut for a 2018 Versa is.

Did that. Two service people searched fifteen minutes...nothing. I'm going with 177

'16 model is 177 ft.lbs. Yours should be exact same parts. From service manual in rear axle section.
