⚡ Tightening Torques & Specifications

Component Specified Torque Assembly Notes
Upper tie rod end nut 33 N·m 3.4 kgf·m × 9.81 = 33 N·m. Paulo cites Fiat spec but lacked tool to execute exact torque.
Lower tie rod end nut 29 N·m Fiat specifies 3.4 kgf·m = 33 N·m for this nut. Paulo notes ~3 kg (= 29 N·m) is easily reached with adjustable wrench, suggesting applied value was close.
