FRONT wheel-bearing adjuster (inner)nut:

Step 1: To seat, torque nut to 50(lb-ft) while spinning hub.

Step 2: Back off, then torque to 35(lb-ft) for automatic hubs,or 50(lb-ft) for manual hubs.

Step 3: Back off 3/8-turn for automatic hubs, and just enough to free the bearing for manual hubs.

Just enough to keep it from leaking.
It has no load on it, so doesn't matter.
