Which way did you turn the wrench and how much did you adjust it??

Clockwise to tighten it. Said and done I probably went a ~3/8 turn tighter.
- I tightened it little by little until I couldn't make the knocking sound with the pry bar
- Went for a drive.
- Came back and was able to make the knocking sound again so I tightened it again until the sound was gone, and gave it a little extra for good measure (probably almost a full 1/2 turn at this point).
- Went for another drive and noticed the wheel wouldn't return to center on its own...
- Loosened it up about 1/8 turn, made sure the knocking noise wasn't there
- Went for a drive and the wheel returned to center like its supposed to... left it like that
Awesome Matt, thanks for the pictures!
is it hard to turn the nut? have to use any PB or should it turn on its own?
I may have to take a peek at mine this weekend and do the same thing.

It wasnt very hard to turn once it broke loose but took a bit of a push to start. That wrench I have is pretty long which helped.
To get a ratchet on there you'll need to loosen the rack mounting nuts. They're easy enough to get to but just some extra FYI that there'll be an extra step if you dont have a wrench like mine (or need to use an E20 socket)
