Pitman Arm torque setting?

Post by RobTwin »

As the title suggests, does anyone have info on what to tighten the Pitman Arm nut to?

It could be 130 lb/ft but it's not clear in the manual :scratch:

Also, what size socket is needed? Looks to be 33mm or 1-5/16" ?

Thanks :thumbright:

Sounds about right Twins!
A two foot long breaker bar will give you about that sort of torque if you don't have a Talk-wrench.
