Wondering if anyone can help 
Torque settings for a 05 Freelander TD4 track control arm.....
I replaced both front track control arms (Delphi part TC1259 / 1258). According to the manual the front bolts should be torqued up to 190 Nm (Seems to be correct for M14 Grade 10,9) and the nuts on the rear of the large bush to 140 Nm. Front bolts were not a problem but torquing up the 1st rear nut sheared the stud.
The torque wrench is calibrated and OK. Obviously I'm going to have to buy, at least, one more control arm but without knowing what I should torque it too I'm afraid of applying too much torque!
Any Advice would be much appreciated.
