I'm finding conflicting info on setting the preload with new bearings. My Ford shop manual says 22-32 in/lbs when using new bearings and 5-8 for used. Other articles I'm reading say 5-8 for new bearings and 8-10 for used. I'm inclined to believe the shop manual. Just to be sure I'm not doing this wrong, measuring pinion bearing preload is the same as measuring rotational force, correct?
