Default Torque Settings-Help Needed

I'm about to put in a small lift by Daystar, and the instructions don't include the torque settings for the swaybar end links and the lower shock mounts. Anyone know what they are?

I just put on some JKS disconnects and they recommended 65 ft/lbs which would probably be right for yours as well.

Thanks everyone. Daystar has been less than helpful. What type of company doesn't include torque specs! The forums come through again when the manufactures fail. Forums ROCK!
