80 Series Torque Specs?

Post by The Game »

Can anyone provide me with a list of torque specs for the 80 series suspension?

I just put a 5" lift in, but I don't have the owners manual to get the specs.

Cheers

Yeah I'm assuming I'll need them for the new radius arms, front and rear panhard rods, rear upper and lower control arms.
