I torqued the upper ball joint stud nut according to the GMC Manual X-7725,
page #A-22 and stripped the threads. It list 100-125 Ft. Lbs. for the upper
and 40-60 Ft. Lbs. for the lower. Are these numbers reversed. After a
closer look I realized that the lower ball joint stud is larger than than
the top. Makes no sense to me that the torque spec for the lower ball joint
stud would be less for a larger stud.
Anybody know what the correct torque for the studs should be?
