Eric, Tomorrow after work I'll bring the compresser and the impact gun over. 2 ft/lbs does not sound safe to me! We will turn up the pressure on the impact and slam her home to about 350 ft/lbs. That should keep the wheel from coming loose...forever!!!

In reality, I'd do just what the manual says, torque it to 25 ft/lbs to seat everything, then back off the nut and re-torque to 2 ft/lbs and slide the pin in. I'll come over sunday to help bleed the brakes then it's time to start on the rear end! (man that sounds bad!)
