Torque Specs

This might come in handy to those, like me, who tend to search around a lot for various torque specs or numbers when re-installing certain things.

All #'s are in lb-ft.
Wheel stud - 80-85
Oil drain plug - 22-29
Front strut tower - 32-38
Spark plug - 14-22
Intake manifold - 13-15
Rear sway bar - 25
Torque Member (a.k.a caliper bracket) - 53-72 (Haynes) or 106-126 (FSM)
Brake Caliper - 16-23

Thanks for the info, but that is a huge-*** gap in specs between the Haynes and the FSM!

Tell me about it

I went by a recommendation by a fellow .org'er. If, when taking the bolts out, they're tough, then go for the higher number. If it was relatively easy, use the lower number.
