I removed the left front axle shaft for replacement, along with the Bearing/seal retaining nut. Have the new bearing and seal pressed in. I did not count how many revolutions I need to turn it back in. Should this be reinstalled tight? I have a pin socket wrench, but I don't want to over or under tighten this bearing holder. It's not in the manuals, or addressed at ALL-Data.com. Can someone please help.

You should have marked the position before unscrewing it. Can you tell where it was by the clean spot left by the retainer and bolt?
If you are able to turn it in using hand tools, you will feel it stop when it is snug, just tap it a bit further, 1/8 inch or so. Make sure you use plenty of lube on the threads, dry threads will seize up.

I can get it back to it's original rotation location because I marked it,however my helper's misplaced the tablet with the # of rotations on it. I'll tighten it then adjust accordingly. Thank you for your time and advise!!
