You mean the big castle nut that holds the hub onto the front axle? If yes,
there is no torque spec. You basically tighten it down whilst spinning the
hub until the hub stops, then back off a little so the hub spins and you can
get the cotter pin in.

I agree with Pete and have used this method for 45yrs without issue. If you=
=E2=80=99re looking for something more scientific and or written documentat=
ion then I=E2=80=99ve attached a scan from my Datsun 280Z factory manual. I=
 know it=E2=80=99s not the car in question but it gives some useful informa=
