Hey there, a question to anyone who has added the 1.5" drop rear Hotchkis springs. I am in the process of dialing everying in but I need to know what to torque the u-bolts and rear shackles to? The instructions are crap and I don't want to over do it. It seems like the spring pads can compress quite a bit so I don't want to wreck anything.

Thanks

Mine had a locking nut so I didn't torque them down. I just snugged them up. Make sure the vehicle's weight is on the suspension be fore tightening them.

Thanks, I guess my real concern is the u-bolts. The new spring pads are quite soft and I can squish them without much effort. I just don't want to over tighten them but I want it done right.

Thanks
