Keep pulling till the veins stand out on your temples, then get a longer bar and do it again Rears 250 to 290nm, 185 to214 lb ft. Fronts 310 to 350nm 229 to 258 lb ft.

well as it turns out they are all the same torque anyway

I've checked the normal sierra, XR4x4/V6, cosworth and granada manuals and they all say 250 - 290 Nm on the rears

the front's are diffrent though...
