Torque settings for 182 front suspension?

[MistaT]

Changing my wishbones tomorrow so need to know what settings to do the wishbone bushes to and the balljoint to hub bolts too.

Many thanks to anyone who helps! Where do you get this info from? I guess my ph2 haynes may have it in?!

Your Haynes has got it listed. Wishbone bushes are 90Nm, the other you'll have to look up!

Got it now, found haynes Ta

Pivot(bush) bolts - 90NM or 66lb
Balljoint clamp bolt - 55NM or 41lb
ARB to arm bolts - 15NM or 11lb

People actually torque stuff to spec?

FT and QFT unless you're working on rotational items e.g hub nuts, bearings or engine bits.

I didn't have a torque wrench that would do 20nM to do my steering wheel so I just did it RFT.

I had a habit of over-tightening things.
