This weekend im going to be working on my 06 grand prix gxp and replacing the following the parts just need the correct torque specs and I'm going to be cleaning my throttle body can I move the flap or no ??
- Axle Nut
- Tie Rod Castle Nut
- Ball Joint Castle Nut
 


There are correct specs for everything.

reality though I air gun on axle nuts without issues. Real torque is probably around 130-150 ft lbs
Tie rod end probably 20-40 ft lbs and then a touch further until you can line up for the cotter pin (again..I use air gun)
Ball joint torque isn't happening unless axle is out and to do that you'd have to pull the strut bolts and compromise alignment. Using a wrench I go til it stops, then give it an extra heave ho if needed to line up the cotter pin.
