Installing control arm bushings

But I need a rear suspension diagram and torque specs to finish the job. I need a diagram including torque specs of the rear suspension of an EVO VIII. Can some please post it here or email me? I have tried searching for it but could not find a diagram with torque specs, it’s the torques specs that I need. I will order my service manual CD today but I really need this diagram soon.

Thanks
