When replacing the cv axle nut can you just tighten it, or do you need to torque it, if so does anyone know the recomended torque setting?

Axle nut torque is 103ftlbs.

Thanks for the info on the torque settings, any of you guys heard of the Sonoma Wheel Hub Bearing, Dorman brand, there is a seller on E-Bay selling the units at #69 + $14 delivery, with 1 yaer warranty, the local Autozone sells them at $130inc tax, with one year warranty, I thought for the extra $36 I would buy two and replace both sides.
Would that be a wise move?

Well the hub bearing replacement went well, I did both sides, first side took about 2hrs, 2nd side not rushing 80mins, easly job following Hanr3excellent tutoriol, but, grrrrrrr the sound is still there, although not as loud! What could the noise be now, one thing that I forgot to mention in my first post was that both front tyres have worn on the inside edge, I guess that I should have took it for a free inspection before thinking straight away that it was the hub bearings.

Ok, took the Blazer in for an inspection today, it needs:
Ball joints upper and lower (both sides)
Idler arm.
Pitman arm
Front end alignment
2x tires.
$744, does that sound about right, or am I being stung?
