I see where it looks like Justice Pete had started to post the front and rear torque specs, but I do not see anything. Is it just my browser or is it really missing?

I am about to install my springs and would really like to see those specs, especially which are TTY so I can get replacements.

I have seen what Pfadt and BMR list for torque specs, both are different on every bolt and neither mention anything about the TTY bolts / nuts.

So if anyone can post or point me to Justice Pete's recommendations that would be great

The suspension nuts on the 5th Gen are almost all designated as single use by GM. They are quenched nuts and every time you run a quenched nut over the threads of a bolt it loses some of the quench. Use LocTite and get them all mechanic tight
