Mike's right, it's 14-16 lbs. in Hanes and 16 lbs. in the factory
manual.

Subject: Stripped Stud in Trailing Arm
I noticed that the responses to Mark Creamer's stripped stud in his
trailing arm didn't mention the fact that the recommended torque on
these studs is miniscule compared to what we are used to elsewhere. I
don't have my torque spec book handy but recommend you look at it before
you crank the nuts on the refurbished stud. I too have had to resort to
helicoils in this area.
