Torque specs for ball joint *quick help*
What are the torque specs for a upper ball joint on a 1993 GMC jimmy s15 4wd. Need to get this replaced by tomorrow, Thanks!
|
17 ft. lbs. of torque for the upper ball joint bolts.
The stud nut requires 61 ft. lbs. for 1987-93 vehicles. I am slightly surprised that the retaining bolts only require 17 pounds of torque, but thats what the book says. |
Thanks! I FINALLY got the balljoint seperated from the steering knuckle, that was really in there, but orielly is idiots and gave me a ball joint for a full size jimmy/yukon, so I have to go in the morning to get that changed out

I used a pickle fork, had to have my buddy bring one out to me since I was not at home. Nice and quiet drive now.. I seem to think the horrible roads around minneapolis had a bit of effort in this balljoint giving out. often feels like driving over train tracks not at the railroad crossing... for 20 miles
Thanks for the help btw |
