I am replacing the four shock link bushings (partially rotted) on my rear shocks. They are easy enough to install, but does anyone know how tight to tighten them? I can't find anything in the manual I have. I am installing the origninal rubber bushings if that makes a difference.
Thanks, Kevin
 
Kevin, whatever you do, don't overtighten them , after seeing what you did to your block.

Actually, I don't know, I converted to tube shocks in the rear.
A good answer will come shortly, I am sure.

According tho the manual, Damper arm to link is 46 lbs.
Damper link attachment is 20lbs. This one gets the jam nut.
