Torque ratings for 11-12 Mustangs.

Did a quick search with no luck.

Is there a compilation of torque specs for certain parts of our cars out there? If not, we can post what you know and I'll compile it into 1 list. I never really torqued anything before and I'm **** with this car.

Also if someone can recommend a torque wrench and what range is best to get.

You can look through a lot of the subsystem manuals here: http://iihs.net/fsm/?dir=711 Each section should include a document called "Specifications" that describes dimensions, torque specs, and all of the other nitty gritty details needed to maintain the car.

I like this idea - already had to search for the strut tower bolts (19 lb ft), wheels (100) and oil drain plug (19), if I remember right.

Maybe basic engine top End stuff and frame?

Also what kind of torque wrench will give me the best use for most mods? A smaller lower # one or a bigger one with higher ratings? Only real stuff I do is brakes, gonna do springs shocks struts, obviously wheels on and off, exhaust etc

not too sure if I wanna spend too much on one tho. My buddy says he got his locally for $20 and while not the best one obviously, it does the trick for most stuff. But its only up to 80#

I'll take a full wiring schematic, front to back!

pdf is fine..

looking specifically for color codes.. thinking of putting aftermarket backup cam in the car but want it to acces the NAV screen..
