Hi All,
I recently picked up a gem of a 2007 E550 (RWD, base) and have been doing some front suspension and brake maintenance. I hear some slight noises,
so I'd like to check my work and use the exactly correct torque values with my digital torque wrench. Are these torque values correct? My VIN is WDBUF72X17B018877. Thank you very much in advance and have a great day.
Front Brake Caliper Bolt (18mm)= 84.9 ft lbs
Front Upper Ball Joint= 33 ft lbs
Outer Tie Rods-45 ft lbs
Front Lower Ball Joint=36.8 ft lbs
Front Lower Ball Joint to control arm=??
Also, are the REAR brake caliper bolts (18mm) also = 84.9 pounds?
