Rear end clicking
I just got a ap1(yr2000) a few days ago and I noticed when leaving from a stop I hear a click sound what seems to be coming from the drivers side rear. Sometimes I also get this same sound when releasing the clutch from shifting into 2nd and or 3rd gear.
I did a search on it and read about the axle nut needed to be tighted, but I heard that it should only happen when going from first/reverse or vise versa, so I'm a bit confused.

Yea kinda happend on accident, I felt like I just snug tightend it with a breaker bar. Than when checked it with a torque wrench it said 250, so I figured i mine as well do the other side at the same tq.

hmm, now I'm noticing that the right rear wheel gets hotter than the others (never checked before). So I guess that bearing is going out, I'm not sure if the over tightening of the axle nut caused it. Would re-torquing the nut to 220 possibly save the bearing from further damage?
