Default Need torque number for front shock top
I'm doing my bushing, shock, tie-rod and ball joint replacement today. Wow. it's quite a job.

Can someone please tell me the torque number for the single nut on top of the front shock?
And just to alleviate confusion, the torque setting for the 3 nuts on top as well.


Thank you.

Chuck, could you post up the diagram for the rear shock torque settings as well? I need to change out both front and rear shocks.

Thanks
