  Torque front nut install cotter.jpg - The nut needs torqueing to 50 ft-lbs and then advancing to the next castelated slot for the cotter. The RH side is RH thread, and required almost 90 ft-lbs to secure. The LH is LH thread, and aligned at 50 ft-lbs. I considered shaving the RH washer, but decided that I wasn't over doing it. These are not tapered bearings, they are roller bearings with a fixed sleeve.
