Usage Tips
Torque Requirements: Because spider jam nuts are often installed with high-strength thread locker and high torque, always use a 3/4″ drive breaker bar or high-output impact wrench.
Clutch Holding: Ensure the clutch is properly secured in a clutch holding fixture before applying torque to prevent injury or damage to the clutch towers.
Heat Application: Many technicians recommend applying localized heat to the jam nut to soften the factory thread locker before attempting removal.
