Folks,

I hope this will find my answer. I just finished replacing the front sub-frame all the suspension etc. and my shop manuals do not show the torque specifications for the idler and pitman arms. Any help out there?

As tight as you can get it + 1/2 turn....J/K :D

As tight as you can get it with a 1/2" ratchet is fine...Its a tapered fit and your not gonna break it off...
