There is a flange nut that holds the upper control arm to the top half of the steering knuckle. I was wondering what the specs on the bolt are so I can replace it?

The nut should come with the new upper control arm.

The tightening torque is 66 ft. Lbs for the outer nut. The nut to body is 35 ft. Lbs.
