outback_97 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 This weekend I'm installing (with help) a set of KYB GR2's and Scorpion springs, in my 97 Leg OBW. I have these torque specs from my Haynes manual, can anyone verify that they are correct? Front suspension: Strut / coil spring assembly Damper rod to mount nut ... 37 to 50 ft-lbs Strut to steering knuckle bolts/nuts ... 98 to 119 ft-lbs Strut upper mounting bolts ... 120 to 192 in-lbs Rear suspension: Strut / coil spring assembly Damper rod to mount nut ... 37 to 50 ft-lbs Strut to steering knuckle bolts/nuts ... 98 to 119 ft-lbs Strut upper mounting bolts ... 120 to 228 in-lbs Note the "in-lbs" on the third measurement in each case. Any other specs I need to follow? Thanks! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPX Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yes - those top strut mount bolts do not need pro-wrestler torque to secure them. in-lbs is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
