Hi all!
I was not quite able to get to the manual's spec of 180 ft lbs when I was putting in my new ball joints ( this is the late style '75). One is at about 140 ft lbs, the other around 120. At that point the wonderful socket I ordered gave up on me and started stripping. Am I close enough, or am I creating a safety issue for myself? Thanks! |
