torque specs for 98 GMC 1500 2wd

-upper and lower ball joint spec
-tie rod spec (outer specifically)
-wheel bearing spec

I've only got specs for my dually and I don't want to assume it's the same so these number would be helpful if any of you guys got em:D.

Thanks guys, Cameron

Even tho Donnie told you waht they were you can just tighten all except the wheel bearing as tight as you want.

To set/preload the wheel bearing...just snug the nut til the bearing sets and the rotor starts to "drag" and then back it off to the first place where you can get the cotter pin in.:cool:
