Default Hub nut torque

Could anyone tell me how much to tighten the large nut that holds the hub bearing assembly onto the front wheel spindle? Thanks.

The wheel hub nut is a one-time-use item and must be replaced with a new nut when removed. Failure to do so can cause the retainer to come loose during vehicle operation resulting in loss of vehicle control.

The new wheel hub nut should be tightened to 221 lb-ft.

From 2007 Workshop Manual 204-01-4.

I hope this is the info you are looking for.
