No. The reason why I obtained the manual specifically for the 2016, is because I noticed the torque specs varied from year to year. Not by a lot, but still. Specifically the brakes if I recall correctly. They increased the torque specs for the brakes in later years of the journey. You can compare for yourself, by going to cardiagn.com, where the 2015 journey torque specs are located and compare them with my 2016 specs.

Shawn, thank you for the quick reply.    Chilton  /  Haynes  /  Helm do not publish or offer on line manuals for the 2010 model.  The dealership parts dept. state they don't have access to torque specs.   Any ideas where I can find torque values for a 2010? Thanks .

Going to throw this one out.

 

Any ideas on the torque for a ball joint nut for a 2010 dodge journey?

 

Just replaced the bad one (pretty badly rusted out internally).  My 1/2 torque wrench died and I'm pretty sure it's probably over torqued.  I prefer something with a castle nut, but all this came with was a nyloc.

 

Just need that one.  I've seen everything from 70ftlbs up to 130ftlbs...

 

Thanks!

Cool!!

 

Thanks!!   We just got all the brake parts in to get the front brakes done.  Thankfully brake part torque usually doesn't vary greatly.  However I'll have to pop for a new torque wrench!

 

I think it's currently probably torqued down to well over 95lbs..  The stupid wrench decided it didn't want to 'click' any longer.  Looks like I'll be backing the nut off and re-torqueing it where it belongs.

 

(Sidebar note:  For some daft reason I never get notified of responses...I just happened to look here and it finally flagged it on the page itself.  I'll need to check my email settings)

 

Thanks Again!!
