I am asking seriously :) even if I smile :)
I have this freaking noises from springs and I would like to get rid of them
down force you are correct the upper shock mount bolts are 76 ft pounds and lower shock bolts are 35 ft pounds
So, just to double confirm. ~75lb-ft?for me it will be ~100N-m

i have steeda springs here waiting to go on ...whats the problem? i didn't plan on buying all new everything at the moment.. wonder why theres so many noise complaints after having the front end apart..
I do not know what is the case of other Colleagues, but I am pretty sure that mine is taht because I did not change these parts:
