Fixing to replace the front lower ball joints and I'll need to remove the front axles. What is the torque specs when I replace them? I've seen guesses of around 185? Actually while I'm at it, what is the torque for the lower ball joints as well?

Thanks much,
Robert

Awesome! Thanks much! I can't find a definitive answer... What size is the OEM nut? 32mm 34 mm? I tried a 1 1/4... Too big... 1 1/8 too small... I'm guessing 30mm? Have tons o sockets... Just none that large,..
 












Thank you, Explorer04!!!
