2022 Chrysler 300 Suspension & Steering Torque Specs

OEM-referenced torque, socket, and thread specs for the 5 front and rear suspension and steering fasteners on the 2022 Chrysler 300 — including the Lower Control Arm Frame Bolt (torques to 100 ft-lbs (135 Nm) + 90 deg, M14x2.0 thread). Every value is safety-critical; verify against your service manual and use a calibrated torque wrench. Full bolt specs for the rest of the vehicle are linked below.

Suspension and steering bolts are safety-critical — use a calibrated torque wrench, replace any prevailing-torque (locking) nut that has been removed, and confirm the value against your service manual before reassembly.

Steering (Tie Rods & Linkage) torque — 2022 Chrysler 300

On the 2022 Chrysler 300, the steering (tie rods & linkage) fasteners are: Outer Tie Rod End Nut (torques to 35 ft-lbs (47 Nm), M12x1.25 thread).

How to torque 300 suspension & steering fasteners

Torque suspension and steering fasteners with the vehicle at ride height (wheels loaded) wherever a bushing is involved — tightening a control-arm or sway-bar bushing bolt with the suspension hanging pre-loads the rubber and it fails early. Clean the threads, start every fastener by hand to avoid cross-threading, and make the final pass with a calibrated torque wrench rather than an impact gun. Ball-joint and tie-rod castle nuts take a new cotter pin; never back a castle nut off to line up the hole — only tighten to the next slot.
