Spring Perch Nut

[jj1928]

I am installing new front spring perches. Is there a specific amount of torque for them or do you just get them as tight as you can ?

Thanks

As tight as you can. I use a 1/2 drive impact on them. There are many cars out there with loose perches. If you see space between the wishbone and the axle or any rust at the perches to axle there are loose.
No brain surgery here... Just get them tight

I have looked in Les Andrews book and on the barn with no luck.
