Page 40.2 in Bentley's shows a torque of 54ft lb on the upper control arm nut for the up to 10-84 non synchro. No mention of using different thickness eccentric washers for clearance as per page 40.18 for the Synchro. Is there a clearance spec for the non-Synchro control arm? I've got the same squeak and my bushings appear to be OK. |
