Component and Systems Documentation

This documentation provides accurate reference data on chassis, suspension, and braking systems. It outlines the structure for front and rear suspension components. You will find precise coverage for strut assembly configuration, hub and bearing alignment, and control arm bushing press-out sequences. This reference material is built to support the daily demands of a professional shop or a dedicated home garage. Separate chapters break down the fuel system, cooling, and drivetrain, including deep dives into the 42LE 4-Speed Electronic Automatic Transaxle. The lubrication section defines the correct application of Mopar-approved fluids and grease types for high-load components. This ensures factory standards are met during routine servicing.

Torque and Technical Specification Highlights

Accurate fastener torque values and alignment data are critical for the Intrepid. Wheel hub and bearing mounting bolts are documented at 110 N·m (81 ft. lbs.). The front lower control arm pivot bolt torque is strictly listed at 142 N·m (105 ft. lbs.). Brake caliper guide pin bolts for the front system are specified at 22 N·m (192 in. lbs.). Front wheel alignment toe is specified at 0.00° preferred, with total rear toe set at +0.10° preferred. Review all factory safety protocols thoroughly before interacting with high-tension suspension elements or applying torque loads to aging chassis components.
