Default ST Sway Bar Torqueing Specs

Hey guys... I was wondering how many lbs. of torque are you suppose to put on the end links for the front and rear ST sways for 90-97 accords? I lost my paper that came with it . I only ask is because it seems like my car body rolls a bit still. I was thinking it could be because i got used to them or that I didn't torque them enough. I've heard the rear end links are suppose to be torqued to 47 lbs? Is this correct? How about for the front end links? Thanx

the directions say to tighten till the bushings JUST start to smoosh. If you do it too tight like I did you will wind up with the bushings getting smashed and then everything goes to hell. Just my .02.
