is there any torque settings for the spindle nut on a 10 bolt front axel. when i first installed my hubs i just tightened it down but know we redid the brakes i want to do it right.
 
this is what my hayne's manual says, and i quote:
Wheel bearing locknut
K10 and K20
Through '97.....50 ft. lbs.
1978 on.........80 ft. lbs.
K30.............65 ft. lbs.
i'm guessing that this means '79-'97 is 50 and 78 and prior is 80
hope this helps.
