There is a procdure and there are torque specs, they are different for the inner and outer spindle nuts. Hopefully someone else can post up the specs and procedure...I'm at work right now.

i put new bearing ,races in my rite front hub because i thought they were bad.but after i put it together,went for a ride still making same noise.it sounds like either something is rubbing or grinding noise,but it stops when i put on the brakes.and also it doen't make any kinda noise when going in reverse.also the hub is hot. not like the left side which is cool.HELP this is driving me crazy.don't know what else to do.thats why i'm asking the experts.i have a 88 burb.also when i put it together i tightened up the inner nut till hub wouldn't move then loosened till the hub would move a half a trun when you spun it.then the outer nut,i tightened up to 35-40 lbs of torque with my torque wrench.HELPPPPPPPPPPP
