Valve last setting
rocker arm stud nut torque
used tie bar...good customer just snapped off the end of his....
Rocker Torque 25-27lbs
Valve Lash .015
Thanks Ed,
I presume the lash is set cold and applies to both kinds of valves correct?
Engine part? Body Part? Tie bars are a lot of things.
The tie bar in reference is a major component of the front suspesion. illustration 16

I've got a used tie bar is you still need one
Yes, Lash is set cold and applies to both intake and exhaust.
How did he break it Robert?
Turned the nut....
H'mmmm
I will assume that the tie bar was corroded where the rubber bushing sits and broke there. A good shop could repair that. A replacement would be easier to deal with, hopefully you have sourced one from Greg. Let us know.
Ron
I believe you are correct. The customer was able to source his own used parts. Thanks you Greg and Ron for the offer and concern.
Mark has new ones in the Know Cee Here advertised.
Mark has new inner tie rods. I have OEM inner tie rods (#25 on the site)

The tie bar (#16 on the site) is unparallel to the torsion bar (#1 on the site).
