Default Installng Axle???

I guess i'm getting ready to install my axle and I have to ask a few questions before I start.First of all I know I need some kind of grease.Will regular baron grease work or is their a specific kind?
I thought I read somewhere that I have to torque the axle nuts to a specific torque.Is that true,if so where can I get the wrench to torque them.
Last one,I read that I need to use a lot of lock-tite.Do I use it on everything or just the axle nuts?
Any last suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks fellas,
James

1st...new bearings (installation tip...put in freezer before installation. this will shrink them slightly and help in fitting them in) 2nd Loktite (apply on everything with threads) Yamaha axle wrenches(try RockymountainATV to purchase)

i recommend either:
LSR Axcaliber or the Durablu eliminator

i run with the Axcaliber...it's comes with a lifetime guarantee and is +1,+2 adjustable.

hope i helped...
