I just did my front wheel bearings again tonight. I did them about a year ago as well. Is it possible i'm not torquing the bearings correctly? They we're really burnt, and the inner one was stuck to the spindle again.
I'm following the instructions as per the Warn Spindle Nut Conversion kit. Torque to 35 ft-lbs and then back off 90 degrees.
The bearings seem really tight, but i'm not too happy about the backing of the 90 degrees part. Is this normal while torquing wheel bearings?
