whoops wrong doc lemme find the other

 

If you have the actual FORD shop manual, torgue specs are listed at the end of each section. They have charts in a separte section than where the actual procedures are detailed.

 

Yeah, my Haynes manual has the torque settings with each repair part. For instance, in the brake chapter, it has the settings listed at the end of the chapter. Get a manual cheap skate.

 

You can get the '65-66 shop manualon CD off ebay for 10-15 bucks.... or hardcopy for under 50.

Well worth it and a must have to work on these old cars.

 

ah HA! At the END of the chapter... Actually I got ahead of myself and sped though the portion that showed that. Missed it. Thanks guys...
