I've just bought a pair of Protech shocks for my Griffith.
Does anyone know the torque value for the upper and lower bolts?
And, yes, I know they need the final torque when the car is back down on its wheels so the bushes aren't stressed.

Thanks for that. I take it that when it says 'wishbone to upright' that's the one.

no, you want damper bolts.

Good luck with getting at those once the car is on the ground wink
