Could someone let me know what the tightening torque for a new ball joint fitment in the front wishbone please?
I can find the info for the ball joint nuts, but not the actual ball joint being screwed into the wishbone.
I could do a bit of Loctite 243 & then do it FT - but I prefer to do it properly ideally.
 
Don't worry about Loctite should be the same a a Peugeot 405 ball joint which is between 250 - 260 Nm as the socket you use is basically a modified 405 socket. Renault will not say as it's not a part they change it the whole arm.
 
I loctited my last ones as I had one start to come loose.
I’ve not the proper socket to do them, so generally just do them as tight as I can with some heat, a hammer and a drift.
