Rear hubs on a ff14 bolt
I just converted the rear brakes to disk. I'm putting them back on and I was wondering how tight to make the nuts on the housing?. My guess would be no movement + a little then lockem down with the keepers.

Re: Rear hubs on a ff14 bolt
what nuts are they? the big ring looking ones you have to have the special socket for?
if so the inner nut is torqued to 50 ft/lbs, install the retainer and the outer nut is torqued to 65 ft/lbs. the axle shaft to hub bolts should be torqued to 115 ft/lbs. Thats from a GM shop Manual. |

50ftlbs while spinning hub then back off a little bit then install the lock nut.
Thats how I do it.
