Are you talking about a GSXR rear wheel conversion to a FJ ? If so you should be using a stock FJ axle in the wheel and the TQ for that on the FJ swing arm is 110 ft lb's. Hope it helps :).

I have a question on the torque setting...  should you use the settings for the Fj swing arm or the setting for the GSXR bearings?

The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Thanks George, yes it is a FJ axle.. should I not be concerned more about the compression on the Suzuki rim/bearing and spacer instead of the FJ spec?
BTW I have managed to fit a Suzuki 5.5 inch rim with the FJ axle, into an FZ1 swing arm ;)
