problem is if i tighten the nut that holdes the hub, rotor, and bearing on, wont turn- should be some proper procedure, yes? no offense, but that is why i like specific numbers to go by- i.e. torque specs for everything. maybe i'm being too ****, though.

thanks zmann- looks like that is as close as i can get to my '05- followed it all except for the 90 degree back off and dial guage- instead used a "tighten then back off 7 clicks" method. doing front pads and calipers tomorrow and will let you know how it goes after i hook up my 10,000 lb enclosed trailer and hit the highway at 85 mph! later!!
