OEM Torque Specs

Anyone on here made a general torque specs list for the most popular items on this truck. For instance for upper and lower F&R Shock bolts, LBJ bolts (along with the one with the pin), Upper Ball joint bolts, Tranny/Diff/Etc plugs, idler pulleys, thermostat housing, water pump, etc.

I know I made a great excel spreadsheet for the Audi guys with 00-02 S4's with all the torque specs broken down for engine, suspension, tranny, brakes, etc.

Anyone done that here. I'm doing my suspension, steering rack bushings, LBJ's, UCA's, and tie-rod ends tomorrow. Be nice to have the specs to all these bolts w/out having to buy a manual. And the Toytec instructions don't give specs (WTF?).

Any help would be appreciated. I found the write up for the steering rack and the LBJ's 4 botls are 59ft + blue loctite.

Rest...no idea??

This link has most common specs. Depending on what year truck you have I would suggest getting an actual FSM. A lot of torque specs get thrown around on here and a lot of them don't match what my paper FSM says.

Not saying anyone is wrong but I'm thinking the 96-98 years may have many torque specs that are different from the 99-02 years. Like the infamous crank bolt spec. Everyone says it's 217 or so... My FSM says 184.

Maybe the fact that there's two different bolts used depending on year makes the difference on that bolt. No one ever mentions that though. Just sayin...
 
Thanks...that is good. Gets me close. I have a 99...so it should be good. +/- 2-3 isn't going to snap a bolt, etc. Especially on things like suspension where tight usually works and I've tracked my Audi and "as tight as you could get" worked. It's things like axle bolts, lower ball joints, and the stuff that requires a precise texts that make a difference. Guess I'll go pick up a manual....ugh
