Hub Nut Torque Trick: This is great tip for torquing a hub nut without having to put the car on the ground. This tip can be used on any 2wd, 4wd and Fwd vehicles. It works on any car with a vented rotors. If you have solid rotors you will need to have a helper step on the brakes to prevent the rotor from turning.
