There is no torque specified for either the front or rear hub nuts in =
the 3000 workshop manual.  After having some of the rear nuts loosen and =
cause damage to the stud threads on the rear hubs, I had to replace the =
studs.  I had the old and replacement studs checked in the Materials Lab =
at work.  They were equivalent in Rockwell hardness to Grade 8 bolts.  I =
have noted in my workshop manual that the front studs (BJ8) measured =
3/8-24.  Standard torque for a Grade 8 3/8-24 bolt is 49 lb-ft, so =
that's what I torqued mine to when I changed the front brake rotors.

Is there a torque setting for the nuts that screw onto the hub studs to =
the disc brake rotor.  This is the early disc setup (3000) that I am =
converting my BN2 with.  I don't have any literature for later Healeys.
