Common Torque Procedure for the Front Wheels?
Tomorrow I'm going to grease the front wheel bearings (tips on the best stuff?) and torque down the spindles.
Is there a torque spec or trick procedure...Like, "Torque to 40ftlbs and then back off on the crown nut to the next available hole for the pin"? Anything like that? My manual is stock. So, I wondered if there is a current "right way" to do this other than what I could find in there. And,...since I'm asking....Do I need to "bleed" the power steering unit? It's brand new. The truck's not running yet but is up on jacks getting ready for the front clip to go on. No steering wheel on the column yet. I just thought, ".....Before I put the clip on, I'll do X, Y and Z...".
