    I did the rear last weekend. I torqued the bottom 2 bolts at 90, then the strut tower nuts hand tight, then gave em a UMMPH.

    up to 94: 17 ft lbs
    95 and later: 24 ft lbs

    The stock setup is prevailing torque which requires 20-25 ft lbs just to move the nut on the stud.

    So flush then snug it.
