Torque Specifications
CAUTION:
• Replace the self-locking nuts after removal.
• Replace the self-locking bolts if you can easily thread a non-self-locking nut past their nylon locking inserts. (It should
require 1 N-m (0.1 kgf-m, 0.7 Ibf-ft) of torque to turn the test nut on the bolt).
• The vehicle should be on the ground before any bolts or nuts connected to rubber mounts or bushings are tightened.
• Torque the castle nut to the lower torque specification, then tighten it only far enough to align the slot with the pin
hole. Do not align the nut by loosening.
NOTE: Wipe off any dirt, oil or grease from the threads before tightening the fasteners.
