Torque spec help

[rebeldart]

In doing searches , I'm getting various info. Could anyone tell me the torque specs for the 4 K frame bolts on my 73 RR with rubber bushings ? Rebuilding the entire front end , have found "most" of the specs. Thanks.

If you have the "Isolated crossmember" (rubber isolators between crossmember and frame), then they get torqued to 75-80 ft/lb.

Service manual states 80 foot pounds.

Service manual states 80 foot pounds.

Specs say 75 ft/lbs, and the text says 80 ft/lbs so I made the range. Five ft/lbs either way won't make any difference.

Yeah, my service manual is the same, but the diagram of the k-frame says 50ft/lbs, which I don't believe.
