Tighten wheel bearing adjusting nut to 23-34 Nm (17-25 ft lb) while rotating the disc brake rotor in the opposite direction. Back nut off approximately one half turn.

Tighten nut to 2.03-2.26 Nm (18-20 in lb) while rotating the disc brake rotor.

o End play should be 0.006-0.127mm (0.00025-0.005 in) .
o Torque required to rotate the hub should be 1.13-2.82 Nm (10-25 in lb) .

Back the nut off approximately one half turn.

Tighten the nut to 18-20 lb-in. End play should be 000-.005 inch. Torque required to rotate the hub should be 10-25 lb-in. Be sure the brake pads aren't dragging on the rotor.

NOTE: Too loose is better than too tight.

Online repair manual:

EDIT: Slow typing again haha!
