Torque Spec for Steering Adjustment

[flyer92]

Just trying to find a reference that lists the torque spec for the 15mm bolt that secures the adjustable steering link. While this is probably one of the easiest things to do on the JL, I don't know how much torque to apply when tightening, and I can't find it in the torque references listed elsewhere in the forums. Thanks in advance and happy Jeepin'!

Thanks, but this is the torque spec I was referring to above. Seems like the "Drag link adjuster clamp" listed in the Steering Linkage section may be referring to the 15mm bolt, but I'm not 100% certain. Just don't want to re-tighten the bolt based on an assumption and end up overtorquing it.

Correct assumption. You're good.
