    Hello. I'm going to install a Hellwig front swaybar on my 19 OR.

    The instructions say I should remove the front "subframe supports", then reinstall to "factory settings".

    Anyone know the proper torque settings for the subframe supports? I can't find them in the service manual I have.

    I searched the forum but didn't find the info.

    Here's Hellwig's instructions: https://www.hellwigproducts.com/wp-content/uploads/product-digital-assets/135007719.pdf

    Thanks.

    I couldn't find the info anywhere. If it's in the service manual, then I can't find it. I measured the torque in the 40-45 range, and dialied it back to 35 to be safe.

    Those bolts aren't critical. Tighten them so they won't come loose and you're set (one, maybe two light grunts, but no ugga duggas). I wouldn't lose sleep over something like that.
