Well that was quick. 
The only reference to 'link pin' in the whole WSM I can find is in the rear suspension, specifically the rubber-mounted forward bushing in the rear lower control arm. Which in PET is called a rocker bar. Yay consistent nomenclature!
That said, I'd guess 'link pin' in the front suspension would have to be those rubber bushings in the upper A-arm., there's no other bolts unaccounted for in the torque table. Sigh...
Art and Dave, it happens that I received 2 oil filters today as payment for a (hopefully) good deed, so I will pay them forward as a reminder to keep my big mouth shut RE: betting about the contents of the factory documents.
PM me your mailing addresses and I'll put the filters in the mail.

Ditto Rob, I'm good, just nice to be able to contribute -- usually I'm the guy sucking knowlege out of the forum.
Keep me on your radar screen however, and stop me the next time I become a danger to myself!

The torque values are in the Technical Specifications handbook. It's the little pocket sized book. It has all the torque values I've needed so far. I found mine in the glovebox when I bought the car. I'm not sure if they're still available Maybe Roger can chime in. Love the color of your cars T.
