Does anybody happen to know the tension (ft/lbs)that I should put on the eight 3/4" headed bolts that go through the rear suspension bushes on the rear trailing arms on a 1975 HJ sedan? Thanks in advance, Jim.

Thanks Sandman. I've found out that the factory spec is 60 ft lbs, so that's what I made them (with the weight of the car sitting down on them). Cheers.
