Thanks, I don't think so, but I'm not exactly sure.
My understanding of it, in this case at least , is that the bearing spacer/stub axle stiffener sets the preload on the bearings, not the torque value on the hub nut itself.
This is what allows the hub nut to be tightened to 'full tight', according to the manufacturers instructions. . . whatever that means!
Just don't want to damage the threads on the stub axle or nut by over tightening things.
My idea of 'full tight' could well do some damage!
