Proper torque for Wheel bearings
I am a rookie in car repair. I need some infos How to repack front wheel bearings correctly without over torque and burn the bearings. I plan to take out the Brake disk for resurfacing and re install. I appreciate any write-up or inputs you might give me.
Thanks.
Thanks.

That's an awesome writeup! I need to do my pads and bearings soon too. Are there any parts that one needs besides bearings? I thought I remembered reading somewhere that the locking tab washer thing was a one-use deal. Oh, and is the spindle nut socket just a plain 54mm/2 1/8" socket, or is it special? I needed a four-pronged socket for the hub nuts on my old Ranger, for instance.

look in the yotatech tech section. there's also a write up on replacing the inner steering knuckle bushing with needle bearings... I sould suggest doing that at the same time.
