njdudsbury:
What is it????

doylebros:
You need to know if M8 or M10 bolts fitted ( new bolts should be used)

First initially tighten diagonally to 10 NM then for


M8 - 40NM

M10 - 70 NM

njdudsbury:
Sorry I meant hub bolt the big hex head one!

doylebros:
200NM with wheel off the ground then an extra 180* when the wheel is on the ground.
New bolt or you may regret it later!

Be careful 200NM + 180 deg. Is the old style bolt.
12 point bolt is 70nm + 90 deg.
