Might want to include the FSM in the "Additional Helpful Info" section. Factory torque specs are in there.

yah, i posted in your other thread to check service manual..?

Yes i did, that's where i got the #'s from.

I thought i'd make it easier than saying: "Go find, download, interpret the FSM for our car."

I think this thread is a good idea. Keep it to the basic stuff, and let people read the fsm for less common items.

:tup:

But you sure the other torques werent in there?

like the seat anchor bolts? thought those were 36lbs, etc.

Yeah, didn't get all the specs in there yet. Put some as placeholders until i get the rest of the info.

...to be continued. :tup:

I thought we just needed to tighten things down as far as they could go. Am I wrong?

yah, all the way then back off 1/4 turn. :rofl2:

That's what I thought.

Thanks, man.

:rofl2:

that's what I do ... :wtf2:

uh... aren't you supposed to go all the way down then tighten another quarter turn? I must be doing it wrong :bowrofl:

that's how i live my life, one tight bolt at a time
