Going to be fitting my new suspension next weekend, but wondered what the torque settings would be on the shock bolts. I'm also fitting new super pro bushes to the radius arms (chassis and axle), but can't find any info on those either. Does anyone have any hints?

Just remember to torque the bolts up with the wheels on the ground so the suspension is in its normal position, if its torqued up with no load on it it could cause premature bush wear
