its worth noting that when you put the drum back on (if you have drum brakes) that nut only needs to be finger tight - the one with the mole grips on it "Take the pin out and the cover off should have a large nut behind that, won't be too tight so just need to take that off"

It should just be tight enough to allow the washer behind it to be easily moved with a screw-driver.  If overtighted, the wheel bearing will overheat and you'll hit a tree.

Thanks for adding that mine was just slightly over finger tight so needed a slight tug with mole grips but didn't effect the movement of it, but yeah don't over tighten

Overtightening won't matter though if you live in an area that has no trees.

"tree" of course is a generic term meaning "a solid object"....

At first glance I thought that tree said 'camber tree'.
