I’m installing new leaf spring and shackle bushings and bolts. Are there torque specs. for these? The kit came with 4-5/8” bolts, 2-9/16” bolts, lock nuts and bushings. Just not sure how tight to make them. I would think that you could over tighten them or am I wrong.

I couldn't find my chart on the pad but I will look on computer in a min. I'm sure someone will chime in soon anyway. But I wanted to remind you to put weight back on the springs before you tighten them down so they can naturally settle in position. I usually bounce on the bumper a few times.
