Torque on coilover install...

I searched, but the only thread w/potential info has a link to socalevo.net... which is down. Does any one have the torque specs for the bolts on this install.... ie.top(mounts) and bottom of coilover?

Any help would be appreciated.

Go with stock specs if you have them handy. If you don't, do not over-tighten. While you don't want it too loose, tighten it reasonably and don't go overboard.
