Replacing a lub bolt stud on rotor
#11
That is some awfully high torque for the locking nut. You'll be hard pressed to get that without the tool wanting to walk off of the locking nut. I usually tighten them 'lug nut' tight. You will be able to repack the outer bearing but not the inner. Clean the bearing really good to check for pitting or scoring.
