Are you referring to the bolt on the strut, the nuts that hold the strut assembly to the body or the bolt that clamps the strut assemply to the lower A arm?

They all have different torque recommendations.

Haha didn't think there were so many. I'm not a suspension expert. If you have them, can I have all the torque settings, or just give me what you know. I'm asking this because my car club is having a group install and they're putting in my pro-kits and to make things run smoother they asked me to get the torque settings. Thanks.
