Hi,

in the build manual there are some torque settings, however as I'm no native speaker I'm unsure what is what idea.




Lower ball joints = B
Upper ball joints = A
Track rod end to steering arm = ?
Track rod end locknut = ?


Any help is highly appreciated smile.

Track rod end locknut = If you peel back the rubber gaiter there should be a locknut on the threaded part of the rack to tighten against the ball end.


Any help is highly appreciated smile.

However with my tools quite difficult to torque the track rod end locknut, guess something like this is needed?

Just remember to copper grease them before putting them together!
