Hey guys, if you read my earlier posts you know I'm workin on my suspension rebuild. I assumed the original Ford Shop Manual would have the torque specs but the stupid thing says "torque to proper specifications" and doesn't tell me the torque spec!!! Stupid book... anyway, if you havent figured it out by now, I have my front suspension in pieces and have no idea of the torque specs. Anyone know what the specs are for the items that need to be torqued or where I can find these specs? Thanks.

Hello -

Torque specs are listed at the end of each chapter. So, for example, if the suspension is described in Chapter 3, look on the very last few pages and you'll find them.

Wow, I feel REALLY dumb now after just cussing out my shop manual lol Serves me right I guess. That'll teach me to talk bad to my shop manual. Thanks, I think I will look a little harder next time before I post hehe

Chris:

I was reading your earlier posts and saw the comment on torque after the car is lowered? Did you find any other info about that? I am getting ready to re-install mine also?

Thanks

I asked the poster a question and his response is the last post on the thread as of now. It is fastbk65. I printed that out for my reference but that is all I have on it right now. Good luck.
