Just need to know how tight my durablue axle locknut should be? Should I muscle this thing tight or just snug? I don't have the cash to pick up a torque wrench yet.:( Thanks for any help.

Thanks. When I removed my stock axle nut it wasn't that tight. I was able to remove it with a crescent wrench and a pipe wrench. I'm just wondering if that's how tight it should've been. Should I treat it like a wheel bearing on a car and just snug it up or should it be as tight as possible?

Wheel bearing snug is a perfect discription. That's about how tight I get mine..:cool:
