7. Install spacer.
Tightening torque increased from 60 to
100 Nm. This requires the use of a higher
self-locking nut (12 mm instead of 9 mm,
length of threads now 80 mm instead of
75 mm).
8. Lubricate inner taper roller bearing and
drive it onto the wheel hub until bearing
rests on spacer.
Mount parts with the 12 mm high nut and
80 mm long bolt.
There is not sufficient space for this in
911 Sportomatic models. In this case the
increased tightening torque may also be
applied on the 9 mm high nuts. However,
tightening the 9 mm high nut with a torque
of 100 Nm (10.0 kpm) is only permissible
once, so that these nuts must always be
replaced after loosening or removing.
