I have a 5 lug conversion kit and am looking to prep it. Can I pull the hubs off without messing up any of the bearings or preloads/etc? I need to get the spindles and heat shields off to clean them up. Lots of dirt on them. And I would like to paint them.

What do I torque the nut back down to? Any hints/helps or "dont do this its not worth it" would be great

 

check the fsm.
