Stabilizer Link Ball Joint Rotation Torque Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Move the stabilizer link ball joint stud back and forth for several times, install the stud with nut, and measure the stabilizer link ball joint rotation torque using the preload socket (Special tool: MB990326).

    Standard value: 0.3 to 2.9 N.m (2.7 - 25.7 in-lb) 

  2. When the measured value exceeds the standard range, replace the stabilizer link.
  3. When the measured value is lower than the standard value, check the stabilizer link ball joint that there is no looseness or gritty feeling. If there is no looseness or gritty feeling, it is judged as usable.
