Default Idler Arm Info

On my 69 I am trying to find the Idler Arm in the AIM manual.... I see page J233, but do not see a specific reference to it or its torque values. Anyone know where this info is in AIM in particular?

Bud,
For 71... Page L220, UPC 9, Sheet A2 ... 25 to 35 ft/lbs. for the 2 bolts that mount it to the frame.
Regards,
Alan

If a specific assembly 'activity' was performed at the Corvette final assembly plant (St. Louis / Bowling Green), the details are in the AIM. If the component was a sub-assembly built in another plant, the details are NOT in the AIM. For example, the engines were procured from other GM plants as a completed assembly; they are shown as a specific part number in the AIM and there or no details on its assembly.

Gents - can anyone guide on the correct torque on the idler to the drag link?
