Planning on swapping my pitman and idler out when i get time or it quits raining. Anybody know the torque specs. I'm replacing the whole idler assembly and pitman arm. Steering box specs would be nice if i need to tilt it to get my puller on. Thanks in advance guys.

I've got them, they have been sitting in my garage for a while. Decided to hold of installing them till I did the pitman/idler also. Thank you for all the info. Exactly what i needed.
