Default LCA bolts torque specs

Hi guys,

I'm on vacation and forgot to bring my Civic service manny.
I replaced the driver side CV half shaft yesterday and was unable to
separate the ball joint; thus, I had to disconnect the LCA at the
two points where its fastened directly to the vehicle underbody, eg, LCA bushings.

Four bolts were removed. All very large (M14 I think
as they required a 19mm socket). What are the torque specs for these
4 bolts?

Thanks.

You brought all your tools on vacation to do extensive car work and you don't have access to a computer to view the service manual? I'm calling BS.

Most of them if I remember correctly is 40 ft-lbs. You may wish to search out the FSM and double check that though.

The 2nd and 3rd post dont seem to be "helpful" to the O.P. how come others posts get deleted for the same type of crap, but others dont?

PM me your examples.

Here, 2012 member creates thread to get others to look up torque specs for him. I could be wrong, but seems likely to be laziness.
