340 front hub nut torque
Re: 340 front hub nut torque
It'll be in the haynes. As a short term fix, I normally just do them up until the wheel stops wobbling, then turn it like 2mm more.

I'm also in a rush atm, but it's in the Green books which are a PDF download from this site.

Re: 340 front hub nut torque
Haynes manual says:
Tighten the nut up to 38ft/lbs (52nm) then loosen the nut by 90 degree's. Then lock the nut by staking the hub nut to the axle shaft.
Hope this helps, Thomas...........

Re: 340 front hub nut torque
not a good idea anymore to do these on torque these days!!
if the bearings/discs have been replaced several times the thread on the hubs can be a bit damaged from loosening the old nuts, if you simply trust 52nm + 90 degr looser you can loose quite a lot of nm then on friction over the damaged thread
52nm>loosen 90degree's>check wheel movement+spinning and if that's ok secure it.
