Rear wheel hub nut torque after bearing replacement
Discussion
I just upgraded to bigger (273mm) vented discs at the rear and replaced the bearing carriers to fit the new calipers.
I can’t find any torque and tightening method (like applying torque in stages or something like that) for the hub nut.
After assembly by hand, the wheel hub is wobbeling in the bearing, which i suppose is due to the fact that the hub (wheel-side) and driveshaft-carrier (diff-side) slide throught inner and outer bearings and onto each other.
I assume, when tightening, all four parts will be pushed together tightly, creating stability.
Anyone did this before and can tell me how it’s done and torqued?
Thanks

Thanks for your feedback. The sequence i described seems correct, and i understand from your comments that the torque must be significant and can best be applied with the wheels on the ground.
What is the torque value? Can it be applied on one go, or does it need to be done in steps with release in between?
