@914RZ-1 http://p914-6info.net/PDFs/Group%204%20Front%20Axle.pdf Torque spec is 57.9ft lbs. I torqued to 58ft lbs with vehicle on the ground. Most of the ft lbs specifications were converted from NM then hence the .7/.9 You will need something to hold the plate that sits on top of the rubber bushing to keep it from moving when tightening the nut. Also remember to torque the strut tube nut to Bilstein's spec 95+or- 7ft lbs. I purchased the Bilstein tool to tighten the strut tube nut to spec. Jeff Bowlsby has graciously uploaded a digital version of the factory shop manuals (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I used it as the Haynes manual had me confused. http://p914-6info.net/Manuals.htm
