Torque value upper front shock post.
Ok, let's hear some opinions on this one. I've thought I torqued the living crapola out of them, but they come loose sometimes. It's a 5/8 fine thread bolt, so what do you all think? .........z
PS. I just installed some Edelbrock IAS shocks in the front, and asked Edelbrock what the value should be. They came back with 80-90 for the post nut, and the SAME for the nut that holds the shock onto the post. I asked him if that wasn't a little low, and they come back with 'Torque it until you feel comfortable with it. Honestly that is the best way.' This from a 'tech'.............. .......z
