1/25/2026 Update – Subframe Crossmember – day 2

Got a little side-tracked working on this.  I needed to figure out how to use my new digital torque wrench, then got confused with lbs ft vs ft lbs which are actually the same.  Then I had to dig out my manuals to see what the recommended torque amounts were: 25-35 lbs ft for the bolts that mount the cross member to the subframe.  I also had to figure out which tools I would use to get in the tight space.  So maybe I’ll get out there this weekend and pick up where I left off!  Side note: ChatGPT gave a 35-45 torque setting which was not what the manual had – double check the AI – always!  Will also use some blue loctite when tightening things.
