If someone with a service manual could help me out, that would be great. I need the torque specs for replacing A-arms on my KFX450R.

Both ball joint castle nuts
Upper Arm Mount
Lower Arm Mount
Upper/Lower shock mounts

I can't believe there is a heim joint in the lower A-Arm!!! Another thing I have to press out. Wow..this install is taking longer than I expected.

the suspension arm pivot nuts and shock absorber mounting nuts are both 27 ft-lb. The knuckle joint nuts are 21ft-lb. Sorry about taking so long .Hope this helps.:D
