A fishing scale = pull gauge. Has a hook at one end, handle on the other and measures tension in Lbs when you put the hook on the wheel stud & pull per the FSM procedure. You can get one at Walmart or anywhere else that sells sporting goods, about $5. If you follow the FSM procedure to the letter, including the pull scale part, you won't have the problem you're seeing of the bearing getting loose in a few hunderd miles.
