SOURCE: I get a dangerious side to side wobble at 30 - 40 on my 2000 FXST

Springer models have a tendancy to ruin neck bearings. Get the front wheel off the ground and point staight ahead. Now move the handlebars slightly from side to side. If you feel a slight "catch" or if the front wheel stays straight without falling to the side then the neck bearings are shot. They are tapered roller bearings, like a wheel bearing. The outer race will have a depression you can feel with your thumbnail. Pack the new bearings with the grease made for that purpose. A couple of hints: When h-d first made this grease available, I laughed. Use it, it works. It was originally designed for helicopter rotors. To remove the outer races, you may have to weld a bead on the bearing surface. The pre-load adjustment is critical. Too loose and you will get a wobble. Too tight and you get a weave, which is worse. It is normal for a springer front end to fall off to the left even when the wheel is pointed somewhat to the right. This is a pretty big job, so if a shop is going to do it you may want to show this to them and ask if it makes sense to them, but please don't second guess them.

SOURCE: Replacing tires need procedure and torque on a 2004 softail

You will pretty much need a tire machine to remove the old tires and put on fresh ones. Torque depends on the model of your bike.

Most front axle nuts are torqued to 65 foot pounds. The same applies to the rear wheel on most models except touring (FLH series) which usually are torqued to 105 foot pounds.

SOURCE: I need the torque specs. on a 1992 ezgo, 4 cycle

I'd just use the standard torque value appropiate for the bolt size. It should be a grade 8 bolt if it's SAE size or grade10.1 if metric.

What are the front wheel bearing torque specs? For 2000 Chev silverado 2500 4x4,motor 6.0.

Those vehicles should have a hub assembly which incorporates a bearing and hub in one unit. To my knowledge the bearing is not serviceable. The hub assembly is bolted to the steering knuckle, so there actually is no wheel bearing torque. The tire/wheel assembly bolts directly to the wheel flange on the new hub assembly.

Hum from front drivers side wheel bearing changed

Two possible problems both related to that bearing change. 1. Was the bearing packed with grease before it was installed? If not, another new bearing is required properly packed with grease. They don't come packed when you by the bearing, only lubed.
2. Incorrect torque on wheel bearing bolt. If you do not have the specs. a good rule of thumb is with the nut just slightly tight and the wheel and tire installed but jacked up, spin the tire by hand and tighten the bolt to a point that the tire will not make 1 full revolution. JUST! ie. 355 degrees.

Good luck
