steering knuckle bolt torque
I pulled spindle (with steering widget and brake backing plate) assembly apart to clean and paint.
Can't find the assy drawing in the manual. So what's the torque on the 2 big bolts that holds the whole thing together? And I don't think the bolts are supposed to have any washers. No? Some kinda self locking nut I think.
Thanks

Re: steering knuckle bolt torque (mixtli)
Your taking about the 2 bolts that bolt the steering arm to the steering knuckle? If so I can't find it in my manuals either, if it helps I put mine together with 120 ft-lbs on them if I remember right. It took alot more then that to take them off :smash:

Yea Scott, I think they're the ones. I'll give em a good amount of torque then. And do you remember if there were any lockwashers? I don't think so.
