Would someone please post the torque specs for the front end?

[HangmanNY]

Fellas,

I’m going to be replacing the lower control arms, inner and outer tie rods, upper control arms (with CORE 4x4 UCA), new Eibach Pro lift springs & Struts. Also Suspension Maxx heavy duty adjustable sway bar end links. Also new wheel hub/bearings.

And I have a new heavy front sway bar which should arrive on Monday. I ordered new brackets for the new Moog bushings.

The rest of the parts should be arriving in the next couple of days.

Would someone please let me know what the torque specs are for these components ? I have a 2015 RAM 1500 Big Horn.

I’ve had cardboard under the truck and I’ve been spraying all of the bolts and nuts with PB blaster for the past two days. Hoping that everything will come off relatively easy.

Thanks for any helpful information.
