Front Wheel Bearing

  1. Install wheel on vehicle. Remove dust cap and cotter pin. Tighten spindle nut to 12 ft. lbs. (16 N.m) while spinning wheel by hand. Back off nut until just loose, then tighten by hand until snug.
  2. Back off enough to insert new cotter pin (about 1/2 hex flat or 1/12 turn). Adjustment should provide .001-.005" (.03-.13 mm) end play. Install dust cap.
