Help with rear suspension components torque specs
I cant for the life of me find the torque spec for the Rear tie rods and Rear lower suspension control arm at the knuckle to axle bolt. The part I am referring to is the one that holds the spring and lower shock mount. Sometimes refered to as Dog bone or spring link.
I have searched everywhere for the specs and it seems as though a lot of people refer to the camber strut or torque strut as a control arm so I have found 59 ft lb and 45 degree, then I found 88 ft lb and was told 80 ft lb by a euro shop mecanic i know. Not sure whick value it is.
I found values for an SLK r170..is it safe to assume the torque values will be the same?, not sure if the suspension in the rear has the same design or not.
Thank You in advance!
