I just did a disk brake conversion from a 78 ford pickup. Does anything go between the the outer wheel bearing and first hub nut that has the little pin?

THANKS! -JRS

Yep, inner adjusting nut has the pin facing outward and just sits on the bearing.
Then the collar and then the outer jam nut.

Do you need to know the torque sequence and value, or are you ok with that stuff?

When trying to put on lock ring, try one side then take it off and try the other side before moving first spindle nut to line up pin with lock ring, both sides are not alike.

Spindle nuts?

Anyone know what to torque them to? If I remember right-1st nut 50 lb then back 90 deg. install stop and then 80 lb on 2nd nut ? sound right?
Thanks Jack
