Question Spring install question

How do I get the rear shock and strut off of the car? I took off the two top and the one on the bottom, but what about the other one? It looks like I have to take it off or the strut won't come off. If i have to take the bolt off does anybody have the torque specs for that bolt? I know the top two are 33ftlbs and the bottom one is 65ftlbs.

I've been a master mechanic for over 7 years, and I have never used a torque wrench on those bolts that you've mentioned! also, I don't understand what you ment by you can't get it out??

I got the strut off. all I did was jst take that bolt out nearest the rotor. All I need is the correct torque spec for that bolt. I torqued it down to 65ftlbs.
