    Im about to change my hub bearing soon as it screeches down the street lol. I just need a torque wrench...the problem is i dont know which one to get. I see a old school torque wrench for a affordable price but it only goes to 150 ft lbs. The hub says it needs 151 ft lbs of torque. Will it be a big difference if i choose to get the wrench?? Help is needed, thanks

    It should be 118 ft lbs, but for whatever reason 2001 (only, went back to 118 in 2002) said 151 ft lbs even though its the exact same hub bearing.

    Hub nut is axle nut. I put my airgun on foward and squeeze the trigger. When it stops..it's torqued.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
