Front Wheel Hub replacement... Torque Specs??

[zackmd1]

Anyone on the forum site have info for replacing the front wheel hubs?? Did not think it would be this difficult but I cannot find torque specs for the hub retaining nut... 05-14s spec was 221 ft-lbs.

Went ahead and purchased a Ford Service subscription for 72 hrs. Torque spec for 2015 and up is 251 ft-lbs.

Not a problem. Suprised that the info was not available any other way... Replaced both front hubs today and plan to replace both rears next week. Left front was certainly bad (bearings are not supposed to sound like a box of marbles) and the right front looked to be on its way out. 110k miles.

Just did it, for anyone in the future looking for an answer, the front axle nut is a 35mm, torqued at 251 ft-lbs

Axle nut part is FR3Z-3B477-B
Hub/bearing is FR3Z-1104-A / MOTORCRAFT HUB-284

Didn't even need a tool to remove the hub, it was very easy.

Do yourself a favor and upgrade to the Timken bearing for 10 bux more. Never had good luck with Ford bearings, especially when lowered and/or driven on the track

Part # TIMKEN HA590598

Hey guys, I'm planning on replacing my front hubs with Ford Performance Part M-1104-AB. Will this require any grease when installing?

Thanks in advance!
