Torque Specs for Lower Control Arm 850

1. The spindle screw that holds the ball joint on is at 50Nm (36.88 lb.-ft.)
2. Tighten the control arm nuts in the sub-frame to 65Nm (47.9 lb-ft) and then angle tighten 120 degrees more . Make sure there is no play after car is lowered. It is important for the bushing life that everything is tight at load. Good luck!
