How do you tighten rear axle hub bearing?

To tighten a rear axle hub bearing, first, safely lift and support the vehicle, removing the wheel to access the hub assembly. Using a torque wrench, tighten the axle nut to the manufacturer’s specified torque, often found in the vehicle’s service manual. If the bearing is adjustable, you may need to rotate it while tightening until it feels snug without excessive play. Always recheck the torque after the wheel is reinstalled and the vehicle is lowered to the ground.
