    I have a 2001 volvo d12c , serial 317328

    Does anyone know the torque on the wheel bearing?

    Also the tightening procedure?

    my local dealer won't give me that info.

    thanks

    It depends on what type of bearing you have.

    A standard bearing set that doesnt have a spacer between the bearings is

    Torue to 100ft. lbs while rotating tire. Back off one full turn. Torque to 50 ft.lbs. Back of 1/3 turn. Locknuts are usually around 200-300ft-lbs. Dont forget to bend lock tab. Final end play is .001-.005"
