Factory Service Manual. I have the '84 FSM at home but I don't know if all the #'s are the same.

C4 corvette suspension torque specs

I used Energy Suspension Polyurethane Performance.

I was able to get the link for the rear suspension specs to work, but not the front.
Can someone give me a link for the front suspension torque specs.

Thanks,
