Torque specs
 

Couple quick questions guys. Putting my front suspension back together today and was wondering what I should torque stuff at.

Cleaned up front springs and put liner between the leafs, how tight should center bolts be?

Replaced rearward spring hanger, I got some grade 8 bolts for it. Torque? Do I need lock washers or anything?

New front shackles, torque on the bolt that keeps them together?

And I got new U bolts too.

On the shackle bolts you need lock nuts...not reg nuts and lock washers...if you torque it down it will be bound up and limit movement...
The center leaf bolts are more or less just to hold the spring pack together for assembly...the u-bolts are what really clamps the spring pack..
On the spring hanger bolts there will be a torque spec dependant on what size bolts your using...Google will tell you that pretty quick..I assume your bolting a spring hanger to the frame...

Yep, hanger to the frame. Thanks for the input on the shackles. I just used what was in the box and I thought it was weird it was only a bolt and a nut.
