Unit hub torque confusion
Ok, need some help on the nut torque for the 4 studs that attach the unit bearing to the knuckle. I've read in multiple places here that the torque should be like 133 ft-lbs torque. BUT, in the manual for my 99' F250 (OE Helm manual for F250-F550), it states 55 ft-lbs!! So, which is it.

Well I've updated the front end from the knuckles out to the 99.5', but the different hubs were a direct swap.
Perhaps it's my HELM manual, early print or something. I did a double take on the value, but the manual is consistent, 55ft-lb on the picture (4x4 front suspension), and in the specifications table at the end of the chapter.
