Suspension Install Question
I recently got all my parts for a suspension installation but i don't have an air gun. Will a big wrench be enough? I've also noticed that in the DIY, some say to torque your screws but they never say by how much?

As for torquing it to spec, I just go by JTE - Just Tight Enough.
Slide a metal pipe over the wrench for more leverage -- it'll make it a lot easier to get those screws out.

yes, this is physics..
the longer your handle, the less force is needed to screw/unscrew something..
try using a short wrench compared to a longer one,, you'll notice a big difference.. this is why most torque wrenches are about 2ft long.
this is why i love physics, it can be applied to working on cars..

Replace the asterisks with acura world (no space).
It's not mine, but it is better and has pictures.
