I asked Google AI if there was anything on a Peterbilt truck that requires more than 200 foot-pounds of torque :


Yes, several critical components on a Peterbilt truck require well over 200 foot-pounds of torque. [1]

High-Torque Components
    • Wheel Lug Nuts: Standard hub-piloted wheels on heavy-duty trucks require 450 to 500 foot-pounds of torque to maintain proper clamping force. [1, 2]
    • Spindle and Hub Bearing Nuts: Steer and drive axle spindle bearing locknuts frequently call for initial torques or jam nut settings ranging from 200 to 400+ foot-pounds. [1, 2]
    • Suspension and U-Bolts: Heavy suspension components, torque rods, and spring U-bolts on Class 8 chassis often exceed 300 to 500 foot-pounds depending on the specific suspension setup.

If you are looking for the exact torque specification for a specific bolt, year, or model of your Peterbilt, please share the component name or model number.

It was bought by mistake. Companies do that. Buy the wrong thing, have intention of returning it but it never happens.

Post it on Marketplace or here in the classifieds.
