hi all, just finished getting new tires and lubing splines ( they are looking good- whew) and am in the process of putting the wheels back on. just can't seem to find torque specs for the front axle pinch bolt and front axle nut. are there torque specs for the rear shocks? any info will be greatly appreciated.
thanks and ride safe john
