2000 2wd Front rotor removal nightmare

All - thanks for all of the guidance in the removal.
Now ready to replace the wheel bearings (inner & outer) rotors. Viewed a you tube video for replacing the wheel bearings and one area I have a question. After installing the inner bearing and seal then mounting the rotor then installing the outer bearing, nut etc...? The video mentions tightening/torqueing to 17-25 ft lbs then backing off a half turn then torqueing to 18-20 inch lbs. Is that correct? If so why and are the above torque values correct for my 2000 2wd Ranger?

Again, no offense, but the guy in the video is kinda wimpy on packing his bearings.
You need to put a nice blob of grease in your PALM, then start pressing the edge of the bearing into the edge of the grease hard! You need to SEE the grease come all the way through the bearing all the way around.
