Rear hub installation.

Ready to install my rear hubs. Everything on the rear end and axle assemblies have been installed back on the car. Differential, driveshaft, axles, backing plates, brakes. I just now need to put the hubs on. What's the best method of installation. Try to push it on using the main nut, or use a large socket and drive the hub on first?

Jim,

Might be a good idea to install new harden keys while the hubs are off. I simply place the hub on the axle and utilize the washer and nut to "fix" the hub in place, torqued to specs.
