Shock And Sway Bar Torque Specs?

[Ted Constantine]

I INSTALLED NEW BILSTEINS YESTERDAY BUT DID NOT KNOW THE TORQUES SPECS FOR THE BOTOM OF THE FRONT SHOCK, TOP OR BOTTOM FOR THE REAR SHOCKS AND THE SWAY BAR MOUNTS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE AXLE.



THE SHOCKS ARE AWESOME. Oo.



DRIVERS FRONT SHOCK WAS A PITA, BUT THE REST WAS VERY EASY. I HAD TO DROP THE SWAY BAR TO GET THE BOTTOM BOLT OUT OF THE RIGHT REAR SHOCK. SO I INSTALLED THAT BOLT BACKWARD IN THE END SO IT WILL BE EASIER THE NEXT TIME.
