Axle nut on 2000 ML55
I did front suspension work on this 2000 ML55 at 173K miles. I looked up the spec for the axle nut and it says 490Nm i.e. 361 ft lbs that the new axle nuts need to be torqued. I think my torque wrench only goes upto 250 ft lbs.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to torque down to this high value.
Obviously I used a breaker bar and a pipe to loosen them.
