I've replaced the end links and was wondering how tight I should torque the upper nut - the one over the bushings. I received one piece of advise suggesting that I only snug them down without completely crushing the bushings. I noticed that this is only about a turn away from bottoming out the nut on the threads. Should I tighten them down to where the threads end, then torque to some spec?

So....Do I tighten the nut to the bottom of the threads, then torque to 12-16 ft-lbs?
