Subject: Torque specs for shocks?? IP: Logged
Message: Anyone know what the torque specs are for front and rear shocks for a 2000 V8 4x4? Do I apply Loctite when I tighten them?
I replaced the stock shocks with Monroe Reflex. After about a month the rears are starting to clunk over sharp bumps. I never torqued them to spec, I just tightened them but obviously not enough since they were a little loose when I just checked them.
Thanks!
