new discs pads and bearings

[Ivan141]

I usually do it by feel, works most of the time. My track volvo has the same bearing tyle, and the book also mentioned a certain torque, but all the mechanics at the volvo dealership say that it should be adjusted until there is no more play.

How to do this:

Tighten nut down until you can no longer move the brake disc back and forth (when holding it at the top and bottom, otherwise you might be feeling play in your steering, which is not what we want to find out).

Then you put the wheel back on and grab it at the top and bottom...then see if there is any back/forth play in it. If there is, tighten the bearing a bit and check again.
When I get that just right I usually tighten the nut a really small bit extra and stake the nut.

Did you also replace the bearing race inside the hub?
