SmackJackTheCrackerMan 54 Report post Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) Could anybody clarify the torque numbers for the suspension arms etc? I have found so many different specs on old forums and YouTube videos with varying numbers of “correct” torque.

smiddy 76 Report post Posted April 23, 2021 Did this couple weeks back, great mod!! Was varying torque figures, just used long spanners and breaker bar with 1/2 inch drive and did things up tight. Be sure to go straight to alignment and not to far away if you are DIYing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I’ve just finished installing coilovers front and back and the M3 arm up front. None of the wheels are now facing forward 🤦♂️ Just called the alignment shop and they’ve already closed. I’ll have to wait till next weekend now. 🤞🏼 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
