Default Torque for steering tie end
Hi,

A few months ago I was done with refreshing the front end at my Xkr 2000, renewing all bushings and ball joints. But I now notice that the nuts of the steering tie ends come loose after driving 1000 kilometers. Searching this forum I cannot find the torque that should be applied to the nut. Anyone that has got it somewhere?

See attached. Look for "Front Stabilizer bar link" references.

Front stabilizer bar link, I thought that was the front anti-roll bar link!

Yeah you are correct. I was reading one thing and thinking another. Sorry!
