How tight is tight?
I recall reading somewhere that 150 lbs/ft is a good guide and this is the figure I'm planning on using when I do my hubs for the first time.
Does anyone with experience AND a torque wrench have a value in mind?
Having posed this question I have to say I think it's much more important to ensure the hub and taper are well matched by lapping and that the Woodruff key is a good fit (i.e. not at all loose, but not binding either).
