    FRONT BEARING HUB HANGUP!

    Got new front hub bearings, got the old ones off, started putting the new ones on and they won't seat correctly. The threads on the jesus nut aern't even coming out enough to torque it down properly and when they do and I torque it to specs the bearing locks up. When you back it off the bearing spins and stops with a spring like bounce. The bearings are the correct ones I just can't figure out why it's being a bastard. I have alot of shit to take care of next week doing promos for ROTS and need my fucking car. This is hell, I would apreciate some help so very much.

      Our cars have "jesus nuts"? awesome, anyways. My best guess is that you forgot a washer or mixed up the order.

        Jesus nut, as in if it falls off you go Oh Jesus!. It's not a mix up and there are no missing parts.
