Re: Torque Specs???

Hey Corie, you were involved in a thread that had these specs...its ok just givin ya a hard time, sounds like you need to spend more time on the truck, mine drives now, brakes are sketchy, need one more night, i'll bring it by friday, you got an air compressor ??

Upper ball joint nut torque specification is 50 lb-ft, tighten to align cotter pin if necessary but don't exceed 90 lb-ft

Lower ball joint nut torque specification is 90 lb-ft, tighten to align cotter pin if necessary but don't exceed 130 lb-ft

Go about 50 ft lbs on the tie rods, then tighten to your cotter pin, i usually go by "feel" with my impact, but i like to doublecheck my work on occasion haha.
