    Had a quick question. Just got car back from dealer after "fixing" the control arm recall. Looked under to make sure everything was alright and nice and tight and found this -__- i could only get it so tight with no lift, not getting under car. So does anyone know what the torque spec is? Ill be searching for it but just wanted to see if anyone knew to make my search easier. Thanks!

    Take it back man. That is some shoddy work from the dealer.
    Life is like riding a bicycle in order to keep your balance you must keep moving.

    Wow that's dangerous. Someone should be seriously reprimanded for that folly. Mark, take it back to the dealer that did the work, if not for you, for someone else's safety.
