Torque Specs

[20-Willys]

Hello,

Does someone have a good list of suspension torque specs without the torque plus degrees they could share here? I have a found a couple of conflicting charts mostly with the rear seeming low.

TIA

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but for me, the only torque's are wrench tight and wrench very tight.

Each flat on the bolt head or nut is 60 degrees. You can guestimate from there or get a degree adapter for your TQ wrench.

Yeah, because it so awkward maneuvering around under there I am hoping to find the number and just listen for the click.

I found these, but the rear control arm specs seems low at 90 where the one in degrees on this site mentions starting at 100.

I believe the lower chart has 3 columns per item
Newton Meters, Foot Pounds, then inch pounds (if applicable)

Okay, that's good news! I used the upper chart for everything but was second guessing it.
