what torque setting for hub nut?

[djinuk]

what torque setting for hub nut on my phase 2 R5, only reason i ask is ive had to replace the bearing as the guy i brought it off failed to do the hub nut tight, this allowed movement and shagged the bearing.

if you do em up too tight you'll end up crushing the bearings.

just had a look at the haynes and it says -

driveshaft nut - 250nm
rear hub bearing? - 160nm

[djinuk]

sweet , i knew i wasnt being stupid , checking on how tight to do them. so 250nm it is
