Applications

Tech Note 1: Greaseable King Pin 
QU40967 is drilled and tapped for a 1/4" x 28tpi tapered grease fitting. The factory grease fitting was a 45 degree angled zerk (QU80066) which is best for most applications. If you do a lot of offroading, I recommend you swap out the angled fitting with QU50021 solid plug which is less likely to get broken off when you traverse rough terrain.

Tech Note 2: Bolt Torque
Torque the 4 retaining Bolts to 70-90 Lb. Ft. (95-122 Nm). (source: Spicer Axle Division publication)
