Hi having started to make some progress with my brake issue i have removed the hub on the offending wheel.
The thing that concerns me is that once i had removed the split pin, i could undo the nut by hand without needing a socket.
The hub has a tapered bearing which i assume the tension of the hub nut applies the correct pretty tension and then the split pin stops the nut from moving.
Does anyone know how tight the nut should be done up before i fit a new split pin?
Thanks
Richard
