I tried to do it by "feel" as I had done on all of my other vehicles; got it too tight and ended up overheating the Grease and having to remove the hub and re-grease it.

I suspect the FSM has a typo. I just recently reread mine, and it calls for 0.01 - 0.02 of play. It doesn't specify units, but neither inches nor mm make sense. Inches, and it's too loose, mm and it seems way too tight to handle thermal contraction summer -> winter.
YMMV of course
