Need correct rear wheel bearing torque spec
I'm doing a rear brake job on a '92 XFi.
Haynes says 129 ft-lb. Someone on teamswift.com said that another manual said 120 ft-lb. Yet another person says they heard these torques were destroying bearings, and got a recommended torque of 60 ft-lb. from somewhere (TSB?). Anybody got an authoritative source? PS: What does the factory recommend for bearing lube (NLGI spec)? Weight = #1-1/2? #2? Spec = GC-LB? or... something else? I've packed the bearings with LubriMatic Multi-Purpose lithium grease and installed them. It says: "best for lubricating rolling parts", whatever that means. It is NLGI #1-1/2. Now I see that they also make a "Disc/Drum Wheel Bearing Grease" that is NLGI GC-LB (Multi-Purpose is not). Please help before I wreck something or have to take everything apart again. Thanks.

Re: Need correct rear wheel bearing torque spec
I torqued the ones on my 1998 model to 90 Ft lbs. Not sure about yours since my crappy manual is crappy.
****EDIT**** Just check Mitchel online, it's 74 ft lbs.
