Default Bushing torque question.

When torquing down the bushings is the suspension supposed to be under load? Just wanted to be sure so I do not twist the bushings.

absolutely. its in the helms manual.

but every bushing needs to be retorqued at ride height since the helms manual doesnt cover different ride heights.
