control arm/ caliper bracket torq specs
Hi All
Im trying to find the torq specs for the upper and lower control arm shaft bolts (bushing ends). I replaced the rubber with poly, but cant find the specs for them.
Also, looking for the upper caliper mount bolt torq spec, the big one at the top of the spindle on the front
Thanks,
Andy

My memory sucks, but I think 50 ft/lb on the control arm shafts WITH red locktite, and something like 130 on that big bolt on the spindle. Be sure and get verification!!

Not sure what you mean here. Both brake caliper mounting bolts in my (82) shop manual are 70ft/lbs
