This is the first 4x4 with lift I've ever done suspension work. Lower control arm ball joint, upper arm, shocks, and such.

What are the torque values? I have a Chiltons for a Dodge Dakota; pretty sure that won't be accurate

Good morning,

I attached below the specs for the front and rear suspension for you.

One suggestion, do all your torques with the truck on the ground with the suspension loaded.
