I have a base model, my front hubs are pressed in. On the back side is a big nut, what is the procedure for this style? Once it is all pressed in, do I hammer this nut with an air gun? Or is there a torque procedure?

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

When you replace that nut, it needs to be torqued. I have attached two pictures of it being done. The second picture indicates the process and torque specifications.

Let me know if this is what you needed or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
