Hi,

I had a similiar situation this last summer.  I have the Axle Nut tool
that you can use a breaker bar on
(http://www.gowesty.com/product-details.php?v=&id=23470).

When I couldn't figure out which wheel bearing it was, I took out the
Axle Nut tool, my breaker bar & checked which nut was looser.  One was
significantly looser than the other (determined by standing on the end
of the breaker bar).

After rough calculations on what 300 foot lbs should be on a 18" breaker
bar, I tightened the loose wheel nut to very fine specifications (slight
bounce on breaker bar!  lol).

It got me 1500 km home (with frequent stops to check the temperature of
the hub).  It should not have loosened, so I know there's something
wrong in there and now that my van is parked in my garage for the
winter, it's my high priority job :)

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Steve W.
