H&R street performance coilover too bolt torque or

So I am doing coilover install. Got everything apart, reused necessary part and compressed and tightened top bolt. Question is???? How Much or little do you tighten the top bolt?? Is there a torque spec or??? Any advise would be much appreciated. Otherwise I'll call h&r tomorrow. Thanks.

I believe you mean nut don't you? Snug will be fine, it's a lock nut, not prone to loosening. Generally more damage can be done by over tightening than slightly under.

Oops ya!!! I meant nut. Thanks. I just went on bilsteins site and got their torque values

They have different torques for different size 'NUTS'

I think it was 34 ft/lbs for m12
