I just replaced this on my 2002 es 3000

Thank you

Thank you - makes sense - they were on there pretty tight.
There is a bolt that connects the large round portion of the arm(that has the rubber disk in it) to the bracket. Would you you have that torgue as well?

Sorry I do not. I could probably find it somewhere if you knew the actual name of the part as I don't exactly know the part you're referring to.

My manual does not name the part to which you refer. I never noticed this before, but my repair manual does not specify the torque for that bolt. If my memory serves correctly, I used 47 ft-lbs when I did mine.

I purchased part 12363A 1236320120 ROD, ENGINE MOVING CONTROL
The part looks like the picture attached.
On the Install engine moving control rod image - it show this part installed in the car. I did follow the picture and torgue the specified bolts.

I have tried to highlight in the red box the bolt which I need the remaining tourge figure for.

Thank you for your help

Yeah I figured thats the bolt you were referring to... Unfortunately I am unable to locate any torque specs for this particular bolt. Hopefully one of the other members has some insight on what the torque may be.

I mean another possibility you could consider is to measure the bolt size (thread size and pitch) and figure out its grade number and find the max torque it can handle and tighten it to around there... just a suggestion if you no one else knows the approximate torque.
