This is what tight looks like for the axle nut:

What is the tq specs from Ford. I don't know how to install it. I take it to a shop to do the work. I want to give them all the tq specs so they install it and torque it down correctly.

The 2019 service manual (August 2018) calls for 85 lb*ft and 30 degrees.

DO NOT use the factory Ford specs for torquing the axle nut on the Renegade shafts. Your Renegade shafts should have come with gold axle nuts and G-Force specifically calls for them to be torqued to 200 ft/lbs. I also added some blue thread locker for extra insurance when I installed mine yesterday.

I am encountering the same issue when checking for play at 6 and 12 o’clock. Figure I will try and tighten the axle nut as mentioned here as it may have backed off following the install of lowering springs. I’ll need to purchase the right socket to do this… On a 17 GT350 what size socket is required to tighten the axle shaft nut? I hear some site reference 32mm.
