tie rods & front subframe mounts on '87 560sl
Hi,
Decided to replace my mounts this weekend and as part of the job replaced my tie rods as well.
Old mounts came out easy and new ones are already in.
Only have two questions.
1) CD manual mentions that tie rods should be installed with either right hand or left hand thread facing either outboard or inboard, but it's not clear. Does anyone know what is proper orientation and why?
2) Is torque for subframe mount bolts 35 N-m or 45 N-m and do you bottom out bolt all the way (ie. screw until threaded all the way through the mount) and then use torque wrench?
Thanks
