mattdavies 0 Posted April 13, 2015 Hi all please help. I need to change the wheel bearing on my 2003 transit minibus. It's the front drivers side that I am changing. I need to find out the torque setting for the middle nut if possible. I know it's a 35 mm but when looking on Google it mentioned 420 nm which I think is a bit excessive to say the least. Please help if possible Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iantt 4,046 Posted April 13, 2015 thats the right torque, you should fit a new nut and washer, pinch nut up, rotate wheel 5 times, torque 250nm, rotate wheel 5 times, torque 420nm job done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
