Tradin 1, not sure the extent of what you are doing. but if I remember right the procedure for the bearings is: tighten first nut to 61 nm rotate hub numerous times, back of nut 1/4 turn then re torque to 4nm or 53 inch pds. put lock plate on then tighten second nut to 61 nm and bend tabs. it was in a recent land rover monthly mag out of the U.K.
