Been off the list since December, working on the 77 off and on. Many
problems encountered and most fixed (or in process), but have no knowledge
of what "end float" is for the front wheel bearings.
Haynes says to put back together with shims (only have shims on one side),
adjust end float to (can't remember numbers), and then torque nut to specs.
Specs list torque as 40 to 70 foot pounds (or pound feet, whichever). Seems
awfully tight for a wheel bearing nut and wouldn't leave much room for what
I logically perceive as "end float." Anyone? Anyone? TIA
