GT Suspension Torque Numbers

[mustang5o]

I need a diagram of the front like this. Guess I should just order the service manual. I wonder how quickly they get shipped out. I'm hoping to get some work done in less than 10 days before an event.

Here's a page from the Ford service manual.

I need to know which bolts to remove the front hub (and their torque values when putting it back on) so I can swap out the studs for ARP extended studs. I grabbed this picture...are the ones I circled in red with red arrows pointing at them the correct ones. I'm presuming there's a fourth hidden in this pic.

I exchanged my front studs without hub removal.

I exchanged my front studs without hub removal.

We got them done and almost thought we could do it without hub removal but weren't sure so we pulled the hubs. Ratcheting wrenches helped because the hub nuts were a bit of a pain as well.

Here's some more to add to the list, thanks to [MENTION=13829]srf52[/MENTION]

According to the 2015 Mustang GT WSM:

LH and RH engine mount bracket, bolts and stud bolt
Torque : 41 lb.ft (55 Nm)

LH and RH engine mount nut
Torque : 46 lb.ft (63 Nm)

The top transmission-to-engine bolt and stud bolt
Torque : 35 lb.ft (48 Nm)

LH and RH transmission-to-engine bolts
Torque : 35 lb.ft (48 Nm)

MT82 transmission support insulator and crossmember and the bolts
Torque : 76 lb.ft (103 Nm)

Transmission crossmember to body bolts (x4): 46 lb.ft
Crossmember to insulator nuts (x2): 52 lb.ft
Insulator to transmission bolts (x3): 76 lb.ft

Thank you. I needed strut tower torque specs

Bumping for others to utilize and not be forgotten

Do we have any specs on driveshaft fasteners? TIA.

Honestly, when you disassemble stuff like this, it generally makes the job easier and better.

Wow you guys rock! This answered my questions immediately.

Bumping for 2021.

Cheers.

I love this thread.

This thread was useful when doing my coilover install for the spindle bolts and subrame. I won't lie and say that some of the "other" bolts just got however many ugga duggas my baby impact gave them.

 

[GT 550]

Just check out the ugga dugga to ft/lb conversion table and you'll know

I know I’m resurrecting an old thread, but are the original bolts torque to yield from the factory, but the replacement bolts or just a straight torque setting?

 

[Nodster]

Hello. I've just printed out the S550 Bushings diagram. Amazing thank you. I'll give that to the workshop fitting the springs. But I noticed one of the arrows has no value assigned. Does anyone know what it should be please? Thanks.

Now I have a 23 Mach 1 coming. I wonder how many of these are the same? Otherwise I will need to order another service manual CD.
