Those values and most everything else you need for DIY work are contained in the Haynes manual for your vehicle. We have one with each of our vehicles and not only give you the info needed to do repairs yourself but also get an idea of how much work a specific repair should (or shouldn't) cost.

You can also buy these from auto parts stores for a few dollars less and sometimes on eBay for even less.

Need torque for ford wlt 2.5L turbo main bearings and conrod bearings

The torque specifications for the main bearings and connecting rod bearings in a Ford WL/WLT 2.5L Turbo engine may vary depending on the specific model year and engine configuration. However, as a general guideline, here are the torque specifications for the main bearings and connecting rod bearings in this engine:
Main bearings:
  1. Torque the main bearing cap bolts in three stages in the following sequence:Stage 1: 30 Nm (22 lb-ft)
    Stage 2: 80 Nm (59 lb-ft)
    Stage 3: 90 degrees
  2. After the final torque of 90 degrees, check the bolt stretch with a torque angle gauge. The stretch should be between 0.15mm and 0.30mm.
Connecting rod bearings:
  1. Torque the connecting rod cap bolts in two stages in the following sequence:Stage 1: 30 Nm (22 lb-ft)
    Stage 2: 90 degrees
  2. After the final torque of 90 degrees, check the bolt stretch with a torque angle gauge. The stretch should be between 0.15mm and 0.30mm.
It is important to note that these torque specifications are general guidelines and may vary based on the specific model year and engine configuration. Always refer to the manufacturer's service manual or consult a certified mechanic for the exact torque specifications for your specific vehicle
