1994 940.

Can anybody tell me the torque specifications for the four bolts securing the transmission support crossmember? Thanks.

look here..

Dear blindboy,

Hope you're well. At the link provided, I saw no torque specs for the transmission cross-member for 940 or 960s.

Probably too late - but ID bolt diameter and strength (grade) - look up torque spec on internet. Fastener specific, not brand specific.

I've always just made those tight, but I'd bet it's not much more than 35-40 ftlbs.

Dear U.S. Diver,

Hope you're well. In Pocket data booklet - Cars (700,900,S90,V90, 850 S/V/C70) 1991-1998, I find only one torque specification for a transmission cross-member, and that's for the M90 transmission (50Nm = 37 pound/foot). While all sorts of specificatione are provided for other transmissions, none of specifications apply to the transmission cross-member.

I've always tightened cross-member bolts on 940s to "snug" plus 1/8" turn, if possible. A mechanic with a professional football line-backer's strength likely has the raw strength to strip the bolt. There's no need for that sort of force to be applied.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook

Thanks, Spook. Happy Thanksgiving.
