Sven,

Quoting from the Chilton's AMC manual,

"Place the hub assembly onto the spindle and install the inner 
lockring and outer bearing.  Install the wheel bearing nut and torque 
it to 50 Ft Lb, while turning the wheel back and forth to seat the 
bearings.  Back off the nut about 1/4 turn (90deg) max."
