Spindle Assembly
I’m starting to assemble my 1982 front spindles and I have a question. In all my assembly books, I can’t locate the torque specification for the 3 bolts that hold together (steering knuckle, caliper bracket and steering arms). I have both the Shop Manual and Corvette America’s Assembly Manual, can’t seem to find it. Help!!![ATTACH]47709511

Hi GD,
Just for your info....
The torque specs for the fasteners on the front spindle assemblies isn't in the AIM because the spindle assemblies came to the production line already assembled.
Just fasteners on the car that were tightened on the line have torque values in the AIM.
This bit of info will change your entire life!

Alan
