    Default koni install with spohn strut to spindle bolts

    This weekend I'm hoping to install some suspension goodies. Have front and rear koni yellows, super pro strut mounts,bmr bearings, moog bump stops , and spohn strut to spindle bolt kit. I've read almost every koni replacement thread, so I have an idea what I'm getting into. But the spohn bolts, anyone use them to replace the tty's. And if so, what are the torque values for them?
    Thanks, Marc

    The tty bolts on my car have been on and off more than a few times. So don't worry about it if you have to use them.

    I bought those bolts too. Mine didn't come with torque recommendations either and I couldn't find anything on Spohn's site, so they sit on my shelf. I've reused the original bolts 3 times now. If you reuse yours you can add a little treadlocker for good measure.

    I finally got an answer. At first I was told by email tech support that they do not carry that part (then how do i have it if you don't carry it). So i called , I was told 20-40 ft lbs to hold strut on, then finish with 125 ft lbs
