Getting ready to have front end aligned and remembered that I had to torgue the lower a-frame bolts now that car is at normal height. In reading my manual it says 50# if I read it correctly. Is this correct? This is the 4 bolts that go into the front and rear crossmember. Thanks!

You may also notice it says do the final tightening with the car down on the ground with A-arms in regular position not hanging down.

I have arms in correct position, just want to verify 50# is correct.

I think the book calls for 55 to 75 ft lbs torque. I usually tighten them, bounce the front end a couple of times and check them again.
