Rear trailing arm torque
 
I just replaced the trailing arm bushings on my 62 and I was wondering how much to apply when I put the bolts back in. any help would be appreciated.

Bolt tourque chart suggest 80 ft lbs for grade 8, 1/2"
115 for 9/16"

From the GM manual, those are 140 ft. lbs and you want them at ride height when you torque them, not hanging down.
