WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Nissan Quest. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Before checking the axial forces and end play, turn the lower ball joint at least 10 revolutions so that the ball joint is properly broken in.

Turning torque "B": 0.49 - 3.43 N.m (5.0 - 35.0 kg-cm, 4.3 - 30.4 in-lb)
