I'll be installing a set of shocks and springs this weekend and I'm in need of torque specs so I don't F something up. Car is an 89 Civic hatchback.

Tein S-techs and KYB GR2s if you're curious. Daily driver woot.

 

40lbs on the 3 big bolts on the LCA....make sure to use anti-seize on the entire bolt body, and about 25lbs on the top of the shock tower.

 

Cool.... what about the fork pinch bolt and the fork-to-LCA bolt? I'll also be installing new upper A-arms. Any specs on those?

its pretty hard to overtighten them, they will bottom out on the sleeve in the bushing. unless you have a 8ft bar you arent going to break or overtighten them

 

I'm really strong and I want to do it to spec.

I know someone has some more info!
