Default TORQUE SPEC INFO Please!?!

Car is a '06 Civic Si.

All I need is the torque specs for the lower control arm bolts where the rear shocks mount into. I'm about to adjust the rear height and I need to shorten the shocks as well. In order to do this I have to disconnect them from that spot and tighten to factory specs when i'm done.

If anybody has a Helms service manual for my car or access to one and they can look up this info please do and get back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Advisors around this area are royal ****** most of the time. They don't like wasting their time with answering questions unless it's of some financial value to them.

And please nobody tell me to "ask around" on 8th civic because I've tried that approach. Whenever I go there for help I never get any so I've given up on that site.

Are you sure? The instructions say to "torque to factory specs" and so did the rep over the phone at Skunk2.
