Tightening rear wheel bearings

[scoobykiller]

hi folks is the above possible

 

[rosso321]

Be hand tight. Size 22. As tighter they are harder the wheel is to rotate/spin hope this answers your question

remove and add a little extra grease. refit and do up hand tight and then nip a bit more with a ratchet or similar (not too tight). fit the wheel. turn the wheel a couple of times. undo the nut and just lightly nip up. feel for a rocking in the bearing by holding the wheel at 12 and 6 oclock. you want to tighten and loosen until you get it at the sweet spot where you can just feel a very slight bit of movement in the bearing.
once you have it there, you are done.

Dude if you want to ask the question so also give the history of the issue. People also commenting without clear question.

i hope you are using the locking washer and giving it a good amount of lube..
i am sure i can safely assume that you are asking because you took the assembly apart and need to verify the right was to piece it back together..?
