Wheel Bearing Nut torque is my question of the day.
I went to the shop and was going to torque the nut on the wheel bearing. I had 35 lbs in my head (left the book at home, home is 10 miles away), and when I got to that value the wheel seemed a little stiff. So I stopped and and went back home to have lunch and consult the manual. So I had it wrong, it's 33 lbs. When I go back I'll try that. And as I am usually a "buy the book" kinda of guy when it comes to that stuff, I did see a guy working on a 1/2 ton that would just tighten the nut till the wheel would not spin and then back the nut off a 1/4 turn or so.
My question is, is there a pro tip beyond the book for torqueing the Front wheel bearing nut out there?
