Spring bolts torque specifications? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Taiyaki · 06-17-2009, 08:02 PM

Im going to be installing Tanabe NFs and wanted to know how much to tighten each bolt after.

one on each side of the rear holding the shock in

and 6 on each side in the front.
i think two for end links, one on the brake, two on the strut, and the one on the top under the wiper.

Hey i was wondering to thoes who installed the Tanabe springs. I read the DIY and it looks like he only put the plastic wraps on the read springs. Does that mean I dont need on the front?

Malaya1221 · 06-18-2009, 05:39 PM

really up to you...if you have enough of the plastic wraps then i would suggest to put them on the front springs also...
