Hey guys,

I need the values for, Trailing arm bushing mounting bolt (big one that connect trailing arm to frame) U-bolts for holding the axle to the arms Thanks a bunch!

Re: Torque values for trailing arms and U-bolts
I dont know, first. I have seen charts for fastener sizes and the torque they should be tightened. It was general info, maybe search for it?

Get them tight as you can then turn them another half a turn. Drive it for a couple of days and tighten them again.
