    I believe it is in the 20-25ftlb range it is not that tight... -Kyle

      It's actually 2-5lbs, actually hand tight. After you install the repack bearings tighten it down 50-60lbs while turning it stop when you can't turn it anymore. Back it off, start turning it and retighten with your hand as much as you can. That's what I did on the aspire worked good.
