Torque specs for rear spindle...

**maxwgn** · 4-10-06, 9:29

I don't have time to search, and hunt through all the results to find the info...

On my 91 626 LX, the rear bearing finally seized before I could get it swapped out...and now that it's basically welded the drum to the spindle, I have sourced a new spindle/drum assembly from a locak wrecking yard.

Question is, what is the torque for the rear control arms, struts, etc... attaching to the spindle knuckle in the rear?

This is an emergency repair, and I need to get it done ASAP...

I found the following at the Performance Probe site, under the rear drum/disc conversion...if any of these are wrong, please let me know...

All of the lateral and trailing links are 65-86 ft/lbs.
