† Use new nut. After installing nut, stake nut shoulder against spindle. The nut must be replaced if it splits or cracks.

‡ Tighten the hub nut to 22 ft-lbs/29 Nm, and then fully loosen. Install a spring scale to one of the wheel nut studs. Tighten the hub nut until the scale reads: 4.5-5.5 lbs/2-2.5 kg for new bearing and seal; 2.5-4.0 lbs/ 1.2-1.8 kg for a used bearing and seal.
