Torque settings on front suspension?
Can anybody tell me how tight the ball joints for the top transit joint and for the steering rack ends need to be?
Cheers
Don't worry, got the answer on another list (NOT TOL!)

Cortina w/shop manual says to tighten 1st to 30 to 45 ft.lb (6 to 6 kgm) then finally to 66 ft.lb (9.2kgm).

Well that's a scientific answer if ever I heard one...
What's the taper got to do with anything?
