    I had the front hub replaced, when I bought the hub, Peterbilt told me to torque the nut to 350 lbs., spin the tire, loosen the nut and retorque to 350 lbs.

    They were too busy to do the work, so I took it to a TA.

    The mechanic that installed it said that he torqued the nut to 200 lbs., that 350 was too much. He checked the play and said it was .0001" and he is confident it was correct.

    Who is correct?
