I agree, do it yourself (maybe that will be Keithself).
If you have a disc brake front end, the shaft nut torque will vary, and be
very light. I lift the front end, then using locktite blue on the nut, I
tighten it untill the wheel stops spinning (after having spun the wheel of
course). I then back off 1/8 turn and rap the shaft on the other end to
free the wheel. Then tighten the pinch bolts to 80 or so lbs/ft (I don't
torque mine...just put the mojo on 'em). Drum front and Rear axle nut is
108-130 lbs/ft and the pinch bolt is mojo'd as well.
hope this helps.

I've been a member for a while, but this is my first message for the board. I have a '74 Eldo Police (Pictures to come), and live across the street from Keith Ruff. I'm having the local shop (non Guzzi) put a set of tires on. They're purchased (Conti Blitzes), but they won't do the work without the "Torque Specifications" for putting the wheels back on. Can someone give me the specs. Can't find it in my book, and the suggestion of "tight" (works for me) isn't good enough for this guy. Any help would be appreciated.
