Need Torque Specs For Shocks

[overlord1]

I'll be installing new front and rear Bilstein HD shocks this weekend on my '06 Silvy Z71. I would really appreciate if someone with access to a service manual could tell me what the recommended torque specs are for the mounting bolts, especially for the front shocks. Thanks.

Per alldatadiy for my 03.

 

Front: bottom bolts to 18ft lbs, top to 15 ft lbs.

 

Rear: Both to 70 ft lbs

WTF?

You mean you don't run 'em down until the air ratchet stops screaming? d**n... you guys are cool.

Heh...That's how mine get tightened.

 

Fixed that "Triple-Lindy" the server did to your post there too ;)

sorry for the unrelated out of the blue reply with no meaning whatsoever, i just need to reply to 4 more posts so I can ask a question......

you torque them with your "calibrated impact", which means, when it stops and wont go any further, its torqued!
