'69 lower A arm nuts



Bob - for a later spider the correct answer is 64 ft lbs..  I presume it is
the same for the '69.  Make sure the shaft is still round.  The shaft is not
supposed to turn in the center hole of the bushing, rather the "donut" portion
of the bushing is supposed to turn inside the bushing's shell.  If the shaft
is worn out of round - the A arm has been rotating around it for some time -
and the new bushing will not cure that.  Will need to replace the shaft.  BTW,
the nuts anchoring the shaft to the body are tightened to   42 ft. lbs. 
good luck.
