UMI Bolt On SFC torque specs.
 
I can't find my instructions on them when I originally put them on. I tried to call UMI, but all of their phone numbers are coming up that they are no longer in service. Anybody got any idea what the torque numbers are. I know what the ones are to the LCA, but the ones up in the front I don't know. Thanks.

I believe UMI just says to crank em down as much as you can with a 3/8 rachet.

I have the 3-point bolt-ons. This is verbatim from the instructions:

"11. Torque rear control arm bolts to 72 ft lbs, tighten all (4) front mounting bolts and all (4) tunnel mounting bolts (3-points only.)
12. Check bolts for tightness periodically. If a "clunk" is detected from rear control arm after installation, re-torque arm bolt to 90-100 ft lbs."

There's no mention of what to tighten the front bolts to, so just crank on them until you can't anymore. Just make sure the wrench doesn't slip off and you skin your knuckles all up like I did lol.
