I'm redoing some of the suspension and wanted to find out what the torque setting would be for the u-bolts? It's on a '56 Chevy wagon and it's lowered 1.5 inches in the rear and it's a semi torquey car. I don't know if those points matter but I threw 'em in there just in case. Thanks!
I believe it is 90lb. and do them again in 50 miles, and then once more at 100. But I would like to have someone back me up on this!
Here is a chart that should help. I mentioned 90lb becuase thats what I was told when I had new bolts made at the local spring shop. Looks like it depends on the bolt diameter. http://www.youngspring.com/pages/torque.htm
