I also wish I had looked at this before I attempted to change the passenger side axle. Same head, snapped off the same bolt. I had lots of penetrating oil on it for hours before hand, but as soon as it snapped I knew I shouldn't have had a 2' breaker bar on a 10mm bolt I drilled it out and replaced with a 10mm 1.5 x 60mm with red locktight and double nut, I tried a locknut, but found that to get the pinch seem tight all I was doing was destroying the locknut, potentially having it break later down the road.
Forgive me for my ignorance, i typically only work off of a service manual, but as my car is the H6 Haynes doesn't make one, and I can't find one anywhere else. I'm pretty much going at everything blind. Does anyone on here know the torque spec for the lower balljoint spindle. I tightened to 58ft/lbs then went to the next spot to get the cotter pin through (likely 58-70ft/lbs) I followed what the specs were for my nissan, cause I thought it might be close. Also Caster angle was mentioned above. Is this the angle (up and down) that the tire makes with the road. I don't understand how this can be adjusted, it seems like it's something set from factory and only changes with suspension cycle, the only way I see to change it, is with longer or shorter springs. The reason I ask, is because a year or so I go, I changed all 4 struts. My passenger side wheel (top) looks to be a little further away from the vehicle than drivers side. I don't notice anything in terms of bump steer or death wobble, everything seems good when driving. I've had an alignment since and it still looks the same. Is this something I should be concerned with?
