Anyone have a sheet with the torque specs? I've seen some sheets for the Gen 1 with the common parts we swap or replace listed with torque specs. Anyone got one handy? I'm currently looking for specs on rear shock upper and lower nuts and front lower CA nuts/bolts. If not, I'll buy the service manual and post up. Just wanted to check here 1st. Thanks!

I know this....bottom front shock mount bolt spec is 430 lb/ft.....and a lot of guys tighten them up after some type of work and don't get them tight enough and wind up with a front "clunk"...
I'll keep an eye out for some more info and of course share what I find..
