Fox TS Steering Stabilizer Torque Specs

Does anyone know the torque specs for the factory hardware that you reuse on this kit? Specifically the nut for the bolt on the wheel side and the 3 smaller bolts for the bracket?

Went with standard specs of 25 and 45 ft/lbs for small and large respectively.

Good On Ya! I'm amazed at how many Jeep guys here post write ups and videos of the things they do to customize their Jeep and rarely does anyone mention a torque spec. All the videos posted that I've seen over the past 2 years just show the guy/gal cranking the nut down without a torque wrench.

My training and mechanic certification is on Harleys---and proper torque is critical. So maybe I'm talking out my ass because Jeeps are a whole different animal.

Will give it some more mileage. Initial thoughts are: it’s not night and day difference, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It’s not noticeably stiffer that it makes turning difficult, but it does seem to make freeway driving more pleasant - it seems less drifty and less impacted by bumps at speed, which is exactly what I wanted.
