Planning ahead for my front wheel bearing job. I see the Mitsubishi service manual shows 199 ft/lbs torque for the axle nut. They also show a special tool (MB990767) to hold the hub from spinning while tightening. Of course, few of us are likely to own this tool. Wondering if it's ok to torque with the wheel on (weight of the car to hold hub from spinning), or jam a pry bar in between the studs? The latter is what I usually do on cars, but not sure if I should try it on these wheel studs. I'm used to old cars and heavy duty trucks.
Tks!
