I just gave it a decent snug by hand. The nut I used kinda screwed in a bit tightly since there was some leftover loctite on the threads so it's been holding so far. It's 15ftlb for the rear shocks but since I used the vorshlag top mounts, I couldn't use two nuts to lock them together so I put a bit of loctite and torqued it to 15ftlb.
