I was looking through my Haynes and couldn't find an answer, or even the part.

I replaced the castle nut and cotter pin on my passenger side tie-rod. Although, I don't think it's called "tie-rod" in the book. I couldn't find any sort of torque spec for it.

I was thinking about 25-30ft lbs. Is this right? Any Idea what the rod is actually called? Center Link? Drag Link?

Truck is 76 F250 4x4. Had Ram-Assist but the ram doesnt work, so it's manual steering for now.

 

I went to about 27ft lbs. I dunno if that's right or not. I guess I'll have to sift through all these responses

 

I think this is accurate but I didn't have the "spec" handy....
