Default Wheel hub assy bolts TTY?

Are the V wheel hub assembly bolts (3 per corner) torque to yield?

No, no thread locker is required. Can't hurt to use some, but it shouldn't be necessary.

I can't remember what the torque spec is, and my FSM is boxed up in storage somewhere while I'm in the process of PCSing from one duty station to another. I vaguely recall that the torque spec is the same as the front caliper mounting bolts, if that helps at all.

Use some blue 242 if you want.
