Well you can't have both. To achieve a measured preload you must first add or remove enough shims to get a measurable endplay. Once you have that measurement to can remove or add shims to tighten or put a small load on the bearings.

Ok, so it need to start with .005, then take shims out to get .001 - .002

Take end play out then set it by rolling torque

Start with pre load to make sure bearings are seated then beat on axel. If pre load loosens up, repeat until pre load does not change, then shim to where you want it. MACK
