hey I was wondering if anybody had some information on the torq specs for the whole front end suspension. I am doing front and rear bushings with a kit from energy suspension.
Suspension Bushing Torq specs.

The specs I have are,
upper control arm to frame nut- 46 ft.lb
upper control arm bushing nuts- Torque with weight of the car on the wheels
55 ft.lb rear 90 ft.lb front 1978
55 ft.lb rear 45 ft.lb front 1979
85 ft.lb front and rear 1980 and after
upper ball joint stud nut 60-65 ft.lb
lower control arm to frame- 95 ft.lb with vehicle weigh on wheels
lower ball joint stud nut- 85-90 ft.lb
sway bar bracket to frame- 20-28 ft.lb
sway bar end link nut- 12-15 ft.lb
These are specs from a Chilton book. I'm not sure why there is a difference on the 78 and79 as compared to 80 and up for the upper control arm bushings.
