I've used this method over my 50+ years of driving and fixing RWD Volvos. After cleaning and repacking I tighten (I do not use a torque wrench--just depend on my "calibrated" wrist) the nut and then back it off to leave no discernable play in the wheel. The final check---no play, wheel spins easily and here's the real TEST -- place a screwdriver blade between the hub and the thrust washer -- with a twist of the screwdriver it should push the washer easily. -- Dave
