Torque Specs for Shocks?
I can't seem to be able to find the torque specs for the top and bottom shock absorber mounting bolts for an 86 - 88 Vette. Does anyone have these specs?

Well, you be careful. I had a tire shop put wheels on, depending on Rat Tat Tat and the lugs where only 40 Ft. lbs. Not the 100 Ft Lbs spec'd.
Wheels falling off can be very sobering [ even when sober ].
No mine didn't. I don't I would recommend not depending on air wrenches .
