I am changing the lower intermediate steering shaft on the K1500 6.5 diesel GMC Suburban.

It has 2 bolts, one at each end. Where do I find the torque specs for the bolts?

Thanks

I would imagine a service manual would have this info? Maybe even a cheap one such as Chilton or Haynes? I bought an ALL DATA DIY (online) a few years back - inexpensive, too. I don't use it a lot, but it has come in very handy at times. I just copied and pasted this, is this what you were looking for?

Intermediate Shaft:

Coupling Pinch Bolt 30 Nm (22 ft. lbs.)
Upper To Lower Steering Shaft Bolt 62 Nm (46 ft. lbs.)

Thanks for the numbers!

I was hoping to find something online, I found online manuals for my Toro Lawn mowers and Mitsubishi diesel engines

All Data is probably the way to go, then. There may be something else out there, but this has been working well for me, anyways. And it was a pretty cheap subscription, too.
