[DeTomaso] Wheel bearing check

I will be installing SAC CV joint kit tomorrow and wanted to check wheel
bearings for play at the same time.
Could someone please let me know the correct procedure to check the
bearings?
I understand the rear bearings are non-adjustable, but front ones can be
tightened; is this correct and what is the correct spec on tightening the
front ones?
Would it make sense  to try and re-pack the wheel bearings with fresh grease
at the same time?

As well, what is the correct torque for tightening the CV adapters to the
wheel flange and ZF flanges?
Should I use any Locktight here?

Thanks a lot,

Robert
