    Torque spec on steer knuckle nuts

    Anybody know the recommended torque spec on the lock nuts that attach the steering knuckle to spindle on a 63?

    Thanks,

    Thanks,
    Mike -

    I've never seen that spec published anywhere; those are 7/16"-20 Grade 8, so I'd say 55-60 ft-lbs. would be close.

      Thanks John,

      Lacking a GM spec, I was going to make my own at 50, but 55-60 sounds good to me also.
