Help! Suspention torq specs please!

[Bolisk]

Just completed the rebuild of my front end and I can't seem to find all the torq specs for my car. I need the upper and lower control arm bushing end cap torq specs. Anyone know what they are for a 1970 corvette?


Also, I've replaced the rear spring. I need to know what the torq specs are for the spring mounting bolts (the ones that hold the spring to the diff), and I need to know how to adjust the down link (bolts and bushings that connect the end of the spring to the trailing arm) bolts to the correct ride height. Anyone have that information?

Front upper shaft cap bolts are 40 ft-lbs, lower shaft cap bolts are 55 ft-lbs; do not torque until the car is on wheels at normal ride height.

Rear spring plate bolts are 70 ft-lbs; DO NOT torque these fully until the car is on wheels at normal weight and ride height or you risk breaking the ears off the rear cover.

The nuts on the stock rear spring end link bolts only have one position - where the slots in the castle nut line up with the cotter pin hole in the bolt.
