Can't help you with the socket right now but here are the specs from a 1972 overhaul manual,
5,200-7,200 rear axle capacity Bearing adjustment nut torque, 50-60 ft. lbs.(with wheel rotating) Adjusting nut back-off, 1/8 turn. Outer locknut torque, 175 ft. lbs. Resulting bearing adjustment, slight preloaded. ------------------ 1971 C10 swb stepside 350/700R4/3.73posi
