The Torque Spec. Guide

There is generally nothing unusual or manufacturer specific about torque specs. It's usually based on nothing more than fastener grade and diameter. When in doubt just use any of the readily available torque tables such as this one.

Measuring fastener diameter is easy and head marking references for grade are also all over the internet.

 

Does anyone know what the torque spec for the "jam nut" on the tie rod assembly? can't seem to find i anywhere.

Schematic from the OP:





Just spotted this same question:

 

Not sure there is one. On the "Snug" to "Put some ass into it" scale, I've always defaulted to "Put some ass into it". Not sure how that translates into Newtons or footpounds though. Sorry.

 

Found it! 41 ft-lbs

 

Hmmmm, guess I'll have to recalibrate to "Put a bit of ass into it".

 

You’re probably still right...

If you have a scrawny little ass.

 

How's it going Mr Met... There's always next year.

 

Can anyone tell me if I got this right? Guys at Camburg told me to use 120lbs on the nut where there UCA bolts to the spindle. I made this so it was a bit easier to see when I print it out.

 

Factory is 110 its on first page under 4x4 front suspension. If camburg says 120 then its 120. Now some of the other torques look off shouldnt the uca nit be 82lbs not 115

 

Anyone in here know what the torque specs are for the trd off road factory tow hook bolts? I looked on the first page in this thread but had trouble finding it

 

Simple. Use this (or any one of a gillion just like it) torque spec guide for your size bolt. They are grade 8.

Thank you sir

 

Nice. Thank you for the information.

 

This has made it a lot easier over the last year to find torq specs

 

Got to say, I met with my suspension a lot, and I always refer back to this thread!! Thank you so much for putting this together!!!

 

Go-to guide when pulling out the wrench. Thank you for the post.
