suspension torque settings

Post by jktom »

Hi
Can anyone tell me what the suspension torque settings are for a GQ. We installed a 3" lift into my mates GQ last night, and just like to finish it off correctly. The GQ workshop manual link in the tech section does not seem to work. Inc upper and lower arms at the rear, and Panhards.
Thanks

bolts have standard torques. google torque settings for 9/16th (14mm) bolts for the rear links i think its 3/4 (19mm) for the front radius arms including the pin and mushroom bushes in the back of the radius arm.
turbos are nice but i'd rather be blown
