Quick question on rear Bil 5100 install

So, after waiting for ever the 5100's got here to go on the back.

Install not too bad, just a tight fit for the new bushing on the lower mount.

Question : How tight should the upper fastner be ? right now I have approx 1/2 inch of threaded stud above the top of the nut and the bushings are moderately squashed. Never having done this I dont know.

 

that should be good man. just dont wanna squash the bushings too much.

 

Thanks for the quick reply.
It seemed like the bushings needed some room to squrim around a bit.

 

I think I remember hearing 15 ft/lb. But dont quote me on that.

 

I tightened mine to leave about 3/8" of thread showing above the nut which was close to the way the original bilsteins (TRD) were set up.
