There is no torque spec when a crush sleeve is used.You tighten the nut until you reach the correct preload on the bearings.The preload is checked by turning the pinion w/an analog in./lbs. torque wrench.There's a little more to it,but that's the short version......

It sometimes pays to get a service manual for your truck.....it will go into details more specifically ....
