how far to tighten top strut nut?
When you reassemble a spring/shock setup using the stock spring, after compressing the spring, how much do you tighten down the very top nut on the shock shaft to hold everything together? with old shocks there was an area of dirt where you could tell how far the nut was down on it but with new shocks, how can you tell?

i was thinking just thread it on enuf to hold the entire assembly together then put it in the car. i figure once the car is on the ground the shock piston will raise thru the mount and then just tighten it down.
